EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Guard of the Provostship of Paris during the reign of Henri III in the late 16th century. The engraving, created by Alexandre Massard in the 19th century, beautifully captures a male soldier standing tall and proud in his meticulously detailed uniform. With a feathered hat adorning his head, this guard exudes an air of authority and elegance. His sword glistens at his side, ready to defend and protect. In one hand, he holds a halberd—a weapon that combines an axe blade with a long spike—symbolizing both power and defense. The Renaissance era comes to life through this image as we witness the intricate details on his attire—the ruffles on his sleeves, decorative buttons down his chest, and ornate patterns etched onto his armor. This guard represents not only strength but also sophistication. As we gaze upon this historical moment frozen in time, we are transported back to a period when military police played an essential role in maintaining order within Paris. Their duty was to safeguard its citizens from any potential threats or disturbances. Displayed at Musee de la Prefecture de Police in Paris, France, this engraving serves as a reminder of our rich history and pays homage to those who dedicated their lives to protecting others during tumultuous times.
