EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating lithograph captures a moment in history when French cavalrymen were training using a mechanical horse. Created by Carrey, an artist active in the early 20th century, this print showcases the dedication and skill of these soldiers as they hone their horsemanship and equestrian abilities. The scene depicts a group of cavalrymen practicing with swords and sabres while mounted on the mechanical horses. The attention to detail is remarkable, showcasing the soldiers' precise movements and intense focus. Each figure exudes strength and determination, highlighting their commitment to mastering their craft. The use of color adds depth and vitality to the image, bringing life to every element within it. The bright blues of the sky contrast beautifully with the earthy tones of the soldiers' uniforms, creating a visually striking composition. This artwork was originally commissioned for Le Petit Parisien in March 1907, demonstrating its historical significance as well as its artistic merit. It serves as a testament to France's rich military tradition and highlights the importance placed on rigorous training within its armed forces. Whether viewed as an homage to French culture or simply appreciated for its aesthetic appeal, this print offers viewers a glimpse into an era where horseback riding was not only seen as essential for warfare but also celebrated as both sport and art form.
