EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "A Couple of Old Lieutenants" artist Edmond Morin takes us back to a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the lives of war veterans. The print showcases two weathered lieutenants, their faces etched with lines that tell tales of battles fought and sacrifices made. These old soldiers stand side by side, their camaraderie evident in the way they lean on each other for support. Despite the passage of time and the toll taken by war, there is an undeniable strength emanating from them – a testament to their resilience and unwavering spirit. Morin's attention to detail brings these characters to life; every wrinkle on their uniforms speaks volumes about their experiences. Their eyes hold wisdom earned through years spent in service, witnessing both triumphs and tragedies. This engraving was originally featured in The Illustrated Times in 1855, capturing the imagination of readers who sought glimpses into military life during that period. Today, it continues to evoke emotions as we reflect upon the sacrifices made by those who have served our countries throughout history. "A Couple of Old Lieutenants" serves as a poignant reminder not only of the hardships endured but also of the enduring bond forged between comrades-in-arms. It invites us to honor and remember all those who have selflessly dedicated themselves to protecting our freedoms.
