Anonyme, estampe satirique sur la prise d'Arras Pendant la guerre de Trente Ans (1618-1648). Quand Louis XIII et son ministre Richelieu entrent dans le conflit, leurs ennemis s'autorisent l'ironie. Printemps 1640, les Espagnols affichent un message sur une porte de la ville d’Arras : « Quand les Français prendront Arras Les souris mangeront les chats. » Mais les Français prirent Arras le 9 août 1640, et les souris ne mangèrent point les chats… et «Chaque chose à son tour, Matou tu le verras En vain si gravement tu gagnes la campagne Un proverbe fatal t'a fait la proie des rats Car puisque les français ont enfin pris Arras Ton corps sera mangé avant d'être en Espagne» |
