Wrong month of birth
Hi,
François Rude was not born in June, but in January. This seems to be a classical copy and paste-error, that could now be found in several other wikipedia-languages and many websides. But really no one of about 30 international printed encyclopaediae from 19th to 21th century I consulted (EB too) refered his birth in June but all in January. So I changed the month.
