EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration, titled "Les Maîtres de la Caricature: Issue October, Caran Dache, Emmanuel Poire" from Mary Evans Prints Online, presents a fascinating lineup of six French Horse Guards as they evolved through the ages, circa 1901. The image showcases the transformation of their uniforms from heavy armor suits adorned with intricate designs to the more recognizable attire in red and gold. The earliest figure in the lineup is depicted in a full suit of armor, complete with a helmet and shield, representing the horse guards of the Middle Ages. As we move forward in time, the uniforms gradually change, with the fourth figure wearing a partially armored suit and the fifth figure donning a more ornate, yet still armored, attire. The final figure in the lineup is dressed in the iconic red and gold uniform that is synonymous with the French Horse Guards of today. This illustration provides a unique glimpse into the rich history of the French Horse Guards and the evolution of their uniforms over the centuries. The intricate details and meticulous attention to historical accuracy make this a must-have for any history buff or art enthusiast. The image is believed to have been created by the renowned French caricaturist, Emmanuel Poire, and was published in the French satirical magazine, "Les Maîtres de la Caricature," in October of 1901. This print is a testament to the enduring legacy of the French Horse Guards and their iconic uniforms.
