Published as a Liebig card, it offers an educational insight into the vital role played by these birds in military communications. The print captures a scene where soldiers on horseback are accompanied by these magnificent creatures. As they ride through the countryside, the carrier pigeons soar above them, ready to deliver important messages across long distances.

The artwork beautifully portrays both the strength and elegance of these avian heroes. Their wings spread wide as they glide effortlessly through the sky, symbolizing freedom and resilience amidst conflict. The attention to detail is impeccable; every feather seems meticulously rendered with vibrant colors that bring life to this historical moment.
