EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating lithograph titled "A Nursery of French Cavalry, The Cavalry School at Saumur" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the world of military learning and great riding schools. This enchanting print showcases non-commissioned officers in charge of a nursery filled with majestic horses. Located in Saumur, France, this renowned cavalry school was responsible for training some of the finest equestrians in Europe. The image depicts young cadets honing their skills as they navigate through stables and prepare to jump over obstacles under the watchful eye of their instructors. The scene is alive with energy and determination as these future soldiers learn the art of horsemanship. The diversity within the cavalry is evident, with references to D'Afrique (from Africa), Chasseurs (light infantry), Spahis (North African light cavalry), highlighting France's colonial influence during that era. This detailed engraving captures not only a moment frozen in time but also reflects French culture and its historical ties to European military traditions. It serves as a testament to the importance placed on horsemanship within both French society and its armed forces. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from their private collection, allowing us to appreciate the skillful craftsmanship behind it while transporting us back to an era where horseback riding played an integral role in military training.
