Map depicting the Siege of Dunkirk and Battle of Hondschoote, between an Anglo-Hanoverian force commanded by the Duke of York and Marshal Freytag, and an army of the French Republic led by Jean-Nicolas Houchard and Jean-Baptiste Jourdan. On 8 September, the French defeated the Coalition army, and the siege of Dunkirk was lifted.
