EDITORS COMMENTS
Auguste Raffet's Trench Guard, from Souvenirs d'Italie: Expedition de Rome, 1853, is a powerful and evocative lithograph that captures the essence of military life during the Italian Wars of the 19th century. The image depicts a group of armed soldiers, dressed in uniforms of the French army, taking a break from their duties as they lie down in a trench. The trench, a symbol of the harsh realities of warfare, is depicted as a muddy and treacherous landscape, with the soldiers' boots sinking into the ground. The soldiers are shown in various poses, some resting their heads on their packs, while others gaze off into the distance. Their expressions convey a range of emotions, from weary exhaustion to quiet determination. The use of chine collé technique, with the lithograph in black on ivory wove paper, adds a sense of depth and texture to the image, making the soldiers seem almost three-dimensional. The title "Souvenirs d'Italie: Expedition de Rome, 1853" suggests that this print was created as a memento of Raffet's own experiences during the French expedition to Rome in 1853. The Italian Wars, which lasted from 1848 to 1871, were a series of conflicts that saw France and other European powers vying for control of various Italian states. Raffet's image offers a poignant and intimate glimpse into the daily life of the soldiers who participated in these wars. Overall, Trench Guard is a compelling and evocative work of art that captures the raw and unglamorous reality of military life during the 19th century. Its intricate details and powerful imagery make it a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, military history, or the human condition.
