The Departure of the Dragoon Guard, 1774-1819
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a poignant moment frozen in time. Painted by Michel Garnier, this oil on canvas print showcases the emotional farewell between a young soldier and his family. The scene takes place within the confines of an interior setting, adding to the intimacy and personal nature of the event. The central figure, a new recruit adorned in a plumed hat and uniform, stands tall with a sword at his side. His face reflects both determination and apprehension as he prepares to embark on his military journey. Surrounding him are loved ones - a tearful mother bidding her son goodbye while clutching onto his arm for one last embrace. In contrast to her sorrowful expression, there is pride evident in the eyes of the soldier's father who looks upon him with admiration mixed with concern. A younger sibling clings tightly to their mother's skirt, perhaps too young to fully comprehend what lies ahead for their brother. Garnier masterfully captures this bittersweet moment that encapsulates both sacrifice and duty. The painting serves as a reminder of the countless families torn apart by war throughout history. It immortalizes not only an individual's departure but also represents all those who have answered their country's call. Displayed within Musee de la Ville de Paris' Musee Carnavalet collection, this artwork continues to evoke powerful emotions centuries after its creation.
