EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a Voltigeur of the Imperial Guard in 1809, as depicted in Caran d'Ache's renowned book "Our soldiers of the century". Created around 1890, this historical piece is an exquisite example of Emmanuel Poire's artistic talent. The image showcases a soldier from the Napoleonic era, donning his distinctive uniform with pride. The Voltigeurs were known for their agility and skill on the battlefield, often serving as light infantry or skirmishers. This particular soldier stands tall and confident, embodying the spirit of bravery that characterized these elite troops. His eyes gaze into the distance with determination, ready to face any challenge that comes his way. Leonard de Selva's expert photography brings out every intricate detail captured within this timeless drawing. From the meticulously crafted buttons on his uniform to each strand of hair beneath his iconic shako hat, no aspect goes unnoticed. The monochromatic palette adds depth and intensity to this powerful portrayal. As we observe this remarkable piece today, it serves as a reminder of our military history and pays homage to those who fought valiantly during times of war. It allows us to reflect upon their sacrifices while appreciating both artistry and historical significance intertwined within one frame.
