EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an Officer of the Royal Horse Guards, hailing from the esteemed Troupes Francaises. Published by Basset in Paris around 1790, this colour lithograph captures the essence of a pre-revolutionary era with its exquisite detail and vibrant hues. The officer is depicted in all his regal glory, mounted on a majestic horse that rears up proudly. Clad in a resplendent dress uniform adorned with intricate embroidery, he exudes authority and elegance. His plumed feathered hat adds an air of grandeur to his appearance, while his sword serves as a symbol of power and protection. The French School's masterful artistry brings this equestrian scene to life, showcasing their expertise in capturing both human and animal subjects. The attention to detail is evident not only in the officer's attire but also in the lifelike depiction of the horse's muscular form and flowing mane. This print offers us a glimpse into history, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship of military uniforms from centuries past. It reminds us of the rich heritage associated with cavalry units like the Royal Horse Guards and their significant role within French army ranks. As part of The Stapleton Collection housed within a private collection, this artwork continues to captivate viewers with its timeless charm. Its presence serves as a testament to our fascination with equestrian culture, reminding us of our enduring connection to these magnificent creatures that have played such vital roles throughout history – be it on
