EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Infantry Marching" by Jean-Antoine Watteau, takes us back to the 18th century in France. The artist beautifully captures a scene of soldiers marching through a picturesque landscape, accompanied by horses and even a child riding alongside them. The composition is filled with movement and energy as the infantry column carries on their journey. Watteau's attention to detail is evident in his depiction of both men and women participating in this military procession. It offers a glimpse into the diverse roles played by individuals during that era, breaking away from traditional gender norms. The presence of animals adds an additional layer of interest to the image, emphasizing the close relationship between humans and nature. The monochrome aesthetic enhances the timeless quality of this artwork, transporting us back to a different time period while still resonating with contemporary viewers. This engraving was originally featured in Paul Lacroix's book "18th Century Institutions, Usages And Costumes" showcasing its historical significance. As we admire this print today, we are reminded not only of Watteau's artistic talent but also of the rich cultural heritage that continues to inspire us centuries later.
