Etats-Unis d'Amérique - Chasseurs à Pied, 1865 - A Glimpse into 19th Century American Military Life
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a moment in time from the year 1865, showcasing the brave Chasseurs à Pied (foot hunters) of the United States. Created by Draner, a renowned French artist, this lithograph with tint stone and hand coloring is now part of the esteemed collection at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. In this vibrant image, we are transported to an era where men proudly donned beards and facial hair as symbols of masculinity. Standing outside a bustling pub or saloon, these soldiers exude strength and determination while clutching their guns tightly. The scene depicts not only military life but also offers a glimpse into everyday society during that period. The meticulous hand coloring adds depth to each figure's uniform and brings life to their surroundings. It showcases the attention to detail that was characteristic of Draner's work. As we observe this piece closely, it becomes evident that every aspect has been carefully crafted – from the architecture of the building itself to the shopkeeper attending his customers inside. Through this artwork, we can almost hear echoes of conversations and laughter emanating from within those walls. It serves as a reminder that history is not just about wars and battles; it encompasses ordinary moments too – like soldiers taking respite after serving their country. Draner's masterpiece allows us to step back in time
