EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 18th century showcases the remarkable Chevalier de Saint George, a prominent figure in French history. Created by Mather Brown and engraved by Bridgeman Images, this print beautifully captures the essence of this legendary man. The Chevalier de Saint George was none other than Joseph Bologne, an extraordinary individual known for his exceptional talents as a composer, violinist, conductor, and fencer. Born in Guadeloupe to an African slave mother and a French plantation owner father, he defied societal norms and rose to prominence through sheer determination and unparalleled skill. In this portrait, we witness the Chevalier's commanding presence as he stands tall with confidence. His colorful attire reflects both his noble status as a knight and his impeccable fashion sense that epitomized 18th-century style. As we delve into history through this engraving, we are transported back to an era of elegance and refinement. The intricate details captured by Brown's skilled hand allow us to appreciate not only the physical appearance of the Chevalier but also gain insight into his character - strong-willed yet refined. This print serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of Joseph Bologne, reminding us of his significant contributions not only within France but also throughout Europe. It is a visual representation of resilience against adversity and serves as an inspiration for generations to come.
