EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th century image showcases a gentleman fencer in the midst of a decisive lunge and strike against his opponent, as depicted in the engraving "Gentleman Fencer Lunging and Striking an Opponent (Coup de Tems Pres sur le Mouvement du Coupe)" by Goldar, after an illustration drawn from life by J. Roberts from Mr. J. Olivier's "Fencing Familiarized, or a New Treatise on the Art of Sword Play," published in London in 1771. The elegant fencer, clad in a fashionable doublet and breeches, skillfully executes a coup de tems pres sur le mouvement du coupe, a thrust aimed at the opponent's temples as they move their sword. The intricate copperplate engraving masterfully captures the dynamic interplay of power, grace, and strategy inherent in the art of fencing during this era. The epee, or foil, held by both fencers is a testament to the refined dueling traditions of the time. This image offers a glimpse into the world of 18th century fencing, a time when the sword was a symbol of honor, skill, and chivalry.
