EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Gendarme, around 1860" takes us back to the 19th century in France. Measuring at 40x30 cm, this artwork is part of a private collection and showcases the talent of the French School from that era. The image depicts a gendarme, a member of the French cavalry regiment during that time. Dressed in his military uniform with precision and pride, he sits atop his majestic horse. The attention to detail in capturing both man and animal is remarkable. The print was created using an alphabet primer technique by Imprimerie-lithographie Pellerin & Cie, patented suppliers of S. M. l'Imperatrice (Empress Eugenie). This adds another layer of historical significance to the piece. As we gaze upon this work of art, we are transported to a different time when horses were essential for transportation and warfare. It serves as a reminder of the bravery and dedication exhibited by servicemen like this gendarme who protected their country on horseback. Jean Duvallon's photography skills have beautifully captured every intricate detail within this composition. Through his lens, we can appreciate not only the craftsmanship but also gain insight into life during that period. This photograph print is not just an exquisite piece for art enthusiasts; it also holds historical value as it represents an important chapter in French history - one where cavalrymen played a significant role in protecting their nation.
