1. Title: "Second Mate, Second Maitre, French Navy, 1844: A Portrait of Maritime Authority and Military Precision" This striking handcoloured woodblock print, created by Pauquet after A. Gusman, offers a captivating glimpse into the uniform and role of a Second Mate, or Second Maitre, in the French Navy during the mid-19th century. The image, part of Eugene Panini's extensive marine collection published by L. Curmer in Paris in 1844, showcases the intricacies of naval uniforms and the importance of military precision at sea. The Second Mate, a key figure onboard French naval vessels, is depicted wearing an impressive ensemble. His uniform consists of a double-breasted blue coat with gold buttons and frogging, a white waistcoat, and trousers. The frogging, or goyer, is a distinctive feature of naval uniforms, serving both as a decorative element and a functional one, allowing for the easy securing of equipment. The Second Mate's uniform is further adorned with epaulettes, signifying his rank and authority. Armed with a pistol and a gun, the Second Mate stands at the ready, embodying the dual roles of a sailor and a soldier. The presence of these weapons underscores the importance of preparedness for boarding actions and potential combat situations at sea. The intricate details of the uniform, from the gold buttons to the red sash, demonstrate the meticulous attention given to naval uniforms during this period. This print not only serves as a testament to the visual allure of maritime history but also highlights the importance of military precision and readiness in the French Navy during the mid-19th century. The uniform of the Second Mate, Second Maitre, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the rich history and traditions of the French Navy.
