EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a portrait of Michel Ney, a renowned French soldier and Marshal. Created in 1933 by an unknown artist, this image captures the essence of Ney's distinguished military career. As one of Napoleon's most prominent generals, Ney played significant roles in historic battles such as leading the rearguard during the Grande Armée's retreat from Moscow in 1812 and commanding the French center at Waterloo. The portrait is based on a miniature painted by Jean-Baptiste Isabey, adding to its artistic value. This particular print is featured in "Gestalten Der Weltgeschichte" a book containing cigarette-card portrait miniatures that depict influential figures from world history over four centuries. Ney's striking presence shines through this colorized depiction, showcasing his regal attire with intricate epaulettes adorning his uniform. The oval-shaped frame adds an elegant touch to this portrayal of royalty and military prowess. As we delve into this photograph, we are transported back to the early 19th century when Ney was recognized as the Prince de la Moskowa and held prestigious titles such as Duke of Elchingen and Marshal of France. This image serves as a testament to Ney's bravery and strategic brilliance on the battlefield while immortalizing him as one of history's notable figures.
