EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting image captures the scene of military degradation on Place Vendome, where criminals of the armed forces are stripped of their regiment badges and forced to dress like outcasts in brown hooded coats. The illustration by Victor Auver, reproduced as an Eau forte print, depicts a moment of disgrace and humiliation for these individuals.
The men stand solemnly in their makeshift uniforms, their faces obscured by shadows as they bear the weight of their punishment. The weapons at their sides serve as a reminder of the power they once wielded, now stripped away along with their dignity.
The grandeur of Place Vendome provides a stark contrast to the scene unfolding before it - a symbol of authority and order juxtaposed with the chaos and shame being inflicted upon these former soldiers. The column in the background stands tall and unwavering, bearing witness to this act of public humiliation.
This powerful image serves as a reminder of the consequences that can befall those who betray their duty or commit crimes within the ranks. It is a sobering glimpse into a dark chapter in military history, captured with precision and emotion by Victor Auver's skilled hand.
