EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the reverse side of a Security Card from 1808, created by the French School in the 19th century. The intricate pen and ink drawing on paper reveals an intriguing glimpse into the past. This particular image is part of a private collection, providing us with a rare opportunity to explore historical artifacts. The card's reverse side offers valuable insights into the administrative practices of French society during that time. Handwritten details such as hair color, eye color, distinguishing marks, and measurements were recorded meticulously for identification purposes. This legal document served as an official record of an individual's identity within the French administration. The meticulousness of this artwork is evident in every stroke; it captures not only physical attributes but also conveys a sense of authority and safety associated with security cards. The attention to detail extends even to facial features like forehead shape, nose structure, mouth formation - all contributing to creating an accurate representation. As we delve deeper into this image, we are transported back in time to witness how state control was exercised during France's First Empire era. The significance placed on maintaining national security becomes apparent through this small yet powerful piece of history. Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this remarkable artwork for our enjoyment today while reminding us not to overlook its commercial use restrictions.
