Exercice de la Barre de Navigation - A Glimpse into Life on Board a French Naval Ship in the 19th Century
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This coloured photo print, titled "Exercice de la Barre de Navigation" offers us a rare glimpse into the daily life of French naval forces during the 19th century. Taken by an anonymous French photographer and now part of a private collection, this image showcases an exercise in navigation skills aboard a military ship. The photograph captures the essence of life at sea, with several ships visible in the background. It is evident that this moment was taken during training or practice sessions for combat units as troops can be seen engaged in various activities on board. The disciplined nature of these armed forces is palpable as they diligently carry out their duties. The significance of this image lies not only in its historical value but also in its representation of French culture and naval traditions. It serves as a testament to France's strong maritime heritage and its commitment to maintaining a formidable navy. This particular print was originally featured as an illustration for Album Militaire, published around 1900 by B Poussot & Valadon. Its inclusion within this publication highlights its importance as an educational tool for those interested in military history. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, let us appreciate the dedication and bravery exhibited by these men who served their country at sea.
