EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the police force in the 17th century. On the left side, we see an archer of the provost marshal of the Ile de France, while on the right stands an archer of the lieutenant. The engraving, taken from Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France, beautifully captures these historical figures. The image depicts a cop and engraver mounted on majestic horses. They exude power and authority as they carry their weapons - guns and muskets - ready to protect and serve. The attention to detail is remarkable; every line etched by Leonard de Selva brings life to this snapshot from history. In this scene, we witness not only skilled horsemen but also glimpses into a world where law enforcement relied heavily on cavalry forces. These troops were instrumental in maintaining order during a time when society faced numerous challenges. As we admire this piece of artistry, it's important to reflect on how far our modern police force has come since then. This print serves as a reminder of our rich history and pays homage to those who dedicated their lives to protecting others centuries ago.
