EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Mr. Alexandre Lecourt, the smallest conscript in France during the early 20th century. Standing at just 1 metre 20, this talented painter has recently passed before the revision board in Paris. The engraving is a part of "Le petit journal illustrious", a renowned publication from 1928. The image captures the essence of patriotism as Mr. Lecourt proudly displays his determination to serve his country despite his physical stature. It is a testament to human resilience and courage, highlighting that size should never hinder one's dedication to their nation. The street scene depicted in the engraving adds depth to the narrative, emphasizing how even amidst bustling Parisian life, individuals like Mr. Lecourt stand out for their extraordinary circumstances. The artist behind this remarkable piece is Stefano Bianchetti, whose skillful craftsmanship brings every detail to life with precision and finesse. Through this print, he immortalizes not only Mr. Lecourt but also an important chapter in French history - conscription during wartime. This artwork serves as a reminder that true strength lies within one's spirit rather than physical appearance or limitations imposed by society. It celebrates diversity and challenges conventional notions of what it means to be patriotic and dedicated to serving one's country.
