EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative bronze figure depicts a Belgian infantryman from the era of the First World War. The intricately detailed sculpture, created by the renowned Belgian foundry Batardy Frères et Cie of Brussels, is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the Belgian military during the conflict. The infantryman is depicted in full uniform, complete with a slung rifle and a steel helmet, reflecting the harsh realities of trench warfare. The lifelike expression on his face conveys a sense of determination and resilience, as if he is ready to face the challenges of the battlefield. The metalwork on the figure is of the highest quality, with every crease and detail in the uniform meticulously rendered. The Belgian School of sculpture is known for its exceptional craftsmanship, and this bronze figure is a testament to the skill and artistry of its creators. The historical significance of this piece is undeniable, as it represents not only the bravery of the Belgian soldiers who defended their country during WWI, but also the enduring power of art to capture and preserve the essence of a moment in history.
