EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a brass button from the esteemed La Tours Royal Etranger Regiment, dating back to approximately 1794. Created by an anonymous American artist in the 18th century, this exquisite piece is now part of a private collection. The button holds great historical significance as it represents the brave soldiers who served in this renowned regiment during the French Revolutionary Wars. Comprised of German and Dutch Royalists, they fought alongside the British forces in the West Indies on St. Lucia and Grenada islands until their disbandment in 1798. With its intricate design and craftsmanship, this button serves as a tangible reminder of loyalty and dedication to one's cause. It symbolizes not only military prowess but also unity among different nationalities united under a common purpose. As we admire this relic from centuries past, we are transported back to an era filled with conflict and upheaval. The image evokes thoughts of bravery on distant shores, where these soldiers fought for what they believed in against formidable odds. Through eDon Troiani's expert photography skills, every detail of this historic artifact is captured with precision and clarity. This photograph allows us to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its cultural significance within the context of European history.
