Napoleon's Egyptian Campaign: The Unyielding Resistance of the Egyptians as Depicted in the Iconic Image of Napoleon's Guide, Joseph Cala, Scaling the Fortifications (July 1798) This evocative image, captured by Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back to the pivotal moment of the French Revolutionary Wars when Napoleon Bonaparte and his troops landed in Egypt in July 1798. The French forces, driven by the ambition of expanding their empire and gaining access to the riches of the East, met with unexpected resistance from the Egyptians. At the forefront of this resistance was the Egyptian guide, Joseph Cala. A local Coptic Christian, Cala was among the first to scale the formidable fortifications of the Egyptians who refused to capitulate. The image captures the intensity of the battle, with Napoleon and his soldiers in the background, as Cala, dressed in traditional Egyptian attire, ascends the walls with unwavering determination. The French campaign in Egypt, which lasted from 1798 to 1801, was marked by a series of significant events. The French forces, initially successful in their conquest, faced numerous challenges, including the harsh desert conditions, disease, and the tenacity of the Egyptian army. The campaign ended in defeat for the French, with the signing of the Treaty of Alexandria in 1801. Despite the ultimate outcome of the campaign, this image serves as a powerful reminder of the courage and resilience of both the Egyptians and the French soldiers who fought in this historic conflict. The image of Joseph Cala scaling the fortifications is a testament to the complex and intriguing history of the Napoleonic Wars and the enduring impact of the clash of cultures and empires.
