EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "La batterie de marine de Chevilly" transports us back to the tumultuous era of the Franco-Prussian War in 1870-1871. Created by Louis Charles Bombled and now part of a private collection, this colour lithograph offers a glimpse into an important historical moment. The image showcases the marine battery at Chevilly, a strategic location during the war. With meticulous detail, Bombled captures the essence of this military stronghold with its cannons pointing towards an unseen enemy. The vibrant colours bring life to the scene, emphasizing both the strength and vulnerability of those involved. As we delve deeper into history, we discover that this illustration was featured in L'Armee de la Loire Relation Anecdotique de la Campagne de 1870-1871 by Grenest (Garnier, 1893).
