EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures a French cuirassier standing guard on sentry duty at the start of World War I in 1914. The cuirassier, clad in his traditional armor of helmet and breastplate, stands tall and vigilant amidst the backdrop of cornstacks. However, it is noted that soon after this image was taken, the use of both helmet and breastplate was abolished.
The Pageant of the Century, published in 1934, immortalizes this moment from history when soldiers like this French cuirassier were tasked with protecting their country during one of the most tumultuous times in modern history. The image serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by these brave men who put their lives on the line to defend their homeland.
As we gaze upon this photograph today, we are transported back to a time when Europe was embroiled in conflict and nations mobilized their armies for war. The sight of this cuirassier standing guard symbolizes strength, duty, and honor - qualities that have defined soldiers throughout history.
Through images like these captured by photographers such as Hilary Morgan and preserved by institutions like Fine Art Finder, we are able to connect with our past and gain a deeper understanding of the events that shaped our world. This French cuirassier may no longer wear his helmet and breastplate, but his legacy lives on through photographs like these that capture moments frozen in time.
