EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print, created by R. Bertants around 1848, showcases the remarkable Angelique Duchemin. The image portrays a half-length portrait of this extraordinary French soldier, beautifully capturing her strength and determination. Angelique Brulon, also known as Marie-Angelique Duchemin (1772-1859), holds a significant place in history as the first woman to receive the prestigious Knight of the Legion of Honour decoration. Her groundbreaking achievement shattered gender norms and paved the way for future generations of women in military service. The artist skillfully captures Angelique's androgynous appearance, emphasizing her dedication to breaking barriers within a traditionally male-dominated field. Clad in an ornate military uniform adorned with medals and decorations, she exudes both power and grace. This engraving from eArchives Charmet is a testament to Angelique's courage and resilience. It serves as a reminder that bravery knows no boundaries when it comes to defending one's country. The intricate details showcased in this print highlight not only her individual accomplishments but also symbolize the collective triumphs of all women who have fought against societal constraints. Displayed proudly at Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this artwork stands as an enduring tribute to Angelique Duchemin's legacy. Through this image captured by Bridgeman Images' lens on Fine Art Finder platform, we are invited into Angelique's world - one where gender equality meets unwavering determination on the battlefield of progress.
