EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Theophile Malo Corret de La Tour d'Auvergne, a man held captive in Plymouth. Despite his confinement, he exudes an air of defiance and pride. The reason for his biased treatment by the populace becomes evident as we notice the cockadel adorning his sword. With unwavering determination, he places it at the end of his weapon, challenging anyone who dares to come and take it from him. The illustration was skillfully crafted by Job (Jacques Marie Gaston Onfray and Breville), a renowned artist known for his attention to detail and ability to convey powerful emotions through art. This particular piece was created for the book "La Tour d'Auvergne, First Grenadier of France" in 1902. The image is part of a private collection that showcases Job's exceptional talent in capturing historical moments with authenticity and precision. It transports us back in time to witness this significant event firsthand. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of Theophile-Malo de La Tour d'Auvergne-Corret's courage and resilience despite being confined against his will. His unyielding spirit serves as an inspiration for all those facing adversity - a testament to human strength even in captivity.
