EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant color lithograph captures a fascinating moment in history - the poodle Mitraille leading French troops into Algiers in 1830. The image, created by Job (pseudonym for Onfray de Breville, Jacques), is a striking representation of the unique role this loyal and courageous poodle played in the military campaign.
As the first French troops march into Algiers, Mitraille fearlessly leads the way, embodying bravery and determination. This scene from A la Gloire des Betes by Aristide Fabre showcases not only the historical significance of this event but also highlights the bond between humans and animals during times of conflict.
The intricate details and vivid colors bring this moment to life, transporting viewers back to the early 19th century when France was expanding its influence in North Africa. The juxtaposition of power and loyalty depicted in this print is truly captivating, making it a valuable addition to any art collection.
Through this artwork, we are reminded of the important roles that animals have played throughout history and how their contributions have often been overlooked. The poodle Mitraille's legacy lives on through this stunning depiction, serving as a reminder of courage and companionship in even the most challenging circumstances.
