EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Augereau a la bataille d Eylau" transports us back to the 19th century and immerses us in the chaos of battle. The image depicts General Augereau on horseback during the historic Battle of Eylau, which took place in Prussia (now Germany) during the Napoleonic Wars. The artist skillfully captures the intensity of this momentous confrontation, with smoke billowing from cannons and soldiers engaged in combat. Augereau stands tall atop his majestic steed, exuding strength and determination as he leads his troops into battle. His presence commands attention amidst the chaos. This engraving was originally created as an illustration for Dictionnaire Populaire Illustre by Decembre-Alonnier around 1880. It is a testament to both historical accuracy and artistic talent. The intricate details bring every element to life - from the texture of Augereau's uniform to the expressions on the faces of those caught up in this war zone. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded not only of France's military prowess but also of Europe's turbulent history during this era. It serves as a powerful reminder that wars have shaped our continent and influenced its development over time. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece through their fine art collection, allowing us to appreciate it today.
