Montgolfiere "L'entreprenant" utilisee par l'armee francaise pour espionner les armees ennemies lors de la bataille de Fleurus le 26 juin 1794. Peinture sur le couvercle d'une tabatiere. A balloon at Fleurus, 1794. The world's first military observation balloon, shown in a painting on a snuff box lid. The balloon 'L'Entreprenant' was used by the French Republican Army to observe the combined Austrian and Dutch army at Maubeuge on 26 June 1794. This became the first battle to be won through control of the air. The balloon was piloted by scientist Captain Jean Marie Joseph (Jean-Marie-Joseph) Coutelle (1748-1835). ©SSPL/Science Museum
