EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a distinguished recipient of the Legion d'honneur in 1897. The artist behind this remarkable illustration is Henri Meyer, who skillfully captured the essence of this elderly French gentleman. With his grey hair and full beard, he exudes wisdom and experience that can only be acquired through a life well-lived. The subject's military uniform adorned with medals signifies his valor and dedication to serving his country during times of war. His jacket, meticulously detailed by Meyer's artistry, reflects the fashion trends of the 19th century. Le Petit Journal, a renowned publication at the time, featured this striking portrait on its pages on January 17th, 1897. This engraving offers us a glimpse into an era when such illustrations were highly valued as art media. As we gaze upon this print today, it transports us back to a different time and place - France in the late 19th century. It allows us to appreciate not only the artistic talent of Henri Meyer but also serves as a reminder of those who have selflessly served their country.
