EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the moment when Polish lancers, serving in the French army under the command of Marshal Nicolas Charles Oudinot, accompanied Napoleon Bonaparte as he made his triumphant return to Paris from Elba in March 1815. The image, created in the aftermath of the Hundred Days War, depicts the Polish riders in their distinctive uniforms, complete with the distinctive crest of the White Eagle, a symbol of the Polish nation. Napoleon's return from Elba marked the beginning of the final chapter in the Napoleonic Wars, a period of intense military conflict that would ultimately see the end of the French emperor's reign. The Polish lancers, who had fought bravely alongside the French army since the late 18th century, played a crucial role in Napoleon's campaign to regain power. Their presence in the French service was a testament to the complex web of alliances and allegiances that characterized the Napoleonic Wars. The print provides a fascinating glimpse into the military dress and equipment of the Polish lancers during this period. The riders are shown wearing the traditional Polish lancer uniform, which consisted of a blue dolman jacket, red waistcoat, and white breeches, as well as a distinctive shabraque, or cloak, adorned with the White Eagle crest. The lancers are also depicted carrying their distinctive lance, a long, heavy spear tipped with a sharp point and a large, flat ironhead, which was used both for charging and for close combat. This print is an important historical record of a pivotal moment in European history, and offers a unique insight into the role of the Polish lancers in the Napoleonic Wars. It is a testament to the enduring legacy of the Polish military tradition, and serves as a reminder of the complex political and military landscape of the early 19th century.
