The image showcases the remarkable bond between two iconic figures of the era - Gambetta, a renowned pigeon, and Keratry, his faithful companion. During the Franco-Prussian War, communication was crucial for both sides. In this extraordinary illustration, we witness Gambetta's heroic role as a carrier pigeon delivering vital messages across enemy lines.
