Comte Mathieu Philibert Laneuville Serurier

EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the distinguished visage and military bearing of Jean Mathieu Philibert, Comte de Serurier (1742-1819), a renowned French military commander of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Born into a noble family, Serurier began his military career at a young age and quickly rose through the ranks, serving under some of the most prominent generals of his time. During the French Revolution, Serurier remained loyal to the monarchy and played a key role in defending the Bastille during the storming in 1789. He later served under the future Napoleon Bonaparte in Italy and Egypt, but their relationship soured when Serurier refused to support the coup of 18 Brumaire in 1799. Despite his political differences with Napoleon, Serurier continued to serve in the French army and played a crucial role in the defense of Paris during the Hundred Days War in 1814. He was eventually made a count in recognition of his military accomplishments. This print, created by an unknown artist, captures the intensity and determination in Serurier's eyes, reflecting the leadership and courage he displayed throughout his military career. The intricate detail and high-quality production of the print are a testament to the skill and artistry of the time. With its historical significance and aesthetic appeal, this print is a valuable addition to any collection of military history or French art.
