EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a historic moment in the early 20th century, showcasing the alpine hunters of the French army conquering the majestic Mont Blanc in the Alps. Published on August 4,1901, as the front page of renowned French newspaper Le petit Parisien, this image by Andrieux and Carrey is a testament to both military prowess and human resilience. The scene depicts a group of determined soldiers standing proudly at the summit of Mont Blanc, their uniforms blending harmoniously with the snow-covered landscape. The mountain peaks stretch endlessly into the distance, creating an awe-inspiring backdrop for this remarkable feat. Each soldier exudes strength and determination as they bask in their hard-earned victory. This engraving not only showcases France's military might but also highlights its deep connection to nature and its ability to conquer even its most formidable landscapes. It serves as a reminder that bravery knows no bounds when it comes to defending one's country. Preserved within Stefano Bianchetti's private collection, this piece transports us back to a time when exploration and conquest were celebrated achievements. As we gaze upon these Alpine hunters at Mont Blanc's summit over a century later, we are reminded of their indomitable spirit and unwavering commitment to duty.
