EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century print from the Cavalry School of Saumur takes us back in time to witness a crucial moment in military history. The image showcases four individuals, clad in impeccable military uniforms, engaged in intense training on a sunny day amidst swirling dust. Mounted on majestic horses, they demonstrate their mastery of horseback riding and spear handling. The scene is set against the picturesque backdrop of Pays de la Loire region in France, where the renowned Cavalry School was located. This institution played a pivotal role in shaping French military tactics and horsemanship during this era. The attention to detail is remarkable as each figure exudes strength and determination while skillfully maneuvering their weapons. The three animals present - two additional horses and an elegant dog - add an element of liveliness to the composition. This illustration captures not only a significant moment for French culture but also serves as a testament to the importance placed on education and training within the cavalry ranks. It offers viewers a glimpse into historical warfare techniques that have shaped modern military strategies. As we admire this horizontal print, we are transported back through time, witnessing firsthand the dedication and discipline required by these soldiers who dedicated themselves to mastering both equestrian skills and combat techniques at one of France's most prestigious institutions – the Cavalry School of Saumur.
