EDITORS COMMENTS
**A Moment of Departure: A Lancer Mounts His Horse**
In this poignant print by Christian David Gebauer (1792-1831), a lancer, armed with his trusty lance in hand, prepares to depart into the unknown. The desolate countryside stretches out behind him, devoid of any signs of life or civilization. Yet, amidst this isolation, our protagonist stands tall and resolute.
To the left lies his packhorse, its head bowed low as if sensing the gravity of their impending journey. As we gaze upon this 20th-century print in black and white tones, Gebauer's masterful etching technique transports us to a bygone era when men like these lancers rode forth into battle or adventure.
The artist's use of chiaroscuro creates an atmosphere both somber and contemplative, inviting the viewer to pause with our protagonist at this moment of departure. The horse, too, seems poised for action, its reins held steady in anticipation of the journey ahead. This is a portrait not just of a man or his mount but also of preparation and resolve.
From Heritage Images comes this evocative print by Christian David Gebauer (1792-1831), now part of the Museum's collection at Te Papa Tongarewa, New Zealand.
