EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print of the "Cover of Le Petit Journal, 19 September 1891" takes us back to a significant moment in French history. This coloured engraving, created by the French School in the 19th century, showcases a portrait of General Leopold Davout d'Auerstaedt. The image is part of a private collection and was originally featured on the cover of Le Petit Journal, a renowned publication at that time. In this striking artwork, we see General Davout d'Auerstaedt depicted with great dignity and authority. He wears an impressive military uniform adorned with medals that speak to his bravery and accomplishments. The half-length composition allows us to focus on his strong facial features and piercing gaze, which exude confidence and leadership. This print not only captures the essence of General Davout d'Auerstaedt but also serves as a window into late 19th-century France. It offers insight into the importance placed on military figures during this period and their representation in popular media like Le Petit Journal. The skilled engraving technique used in this artwork adds depth and texture to every detail, making it truly remarkable. As we admire this historical piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let us appreciate both its artistic merit and its ability to transport us back in time – reminding us of those who shaped our past through their courage and dedication.
