EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph from the Liszt Collection showcases the Garde Nationale 66e Bataillon Commandant Kernen, taken by renowned French photographer André Adolphe-Eugène Disdéri in Paris, France between 1870 and 1871. The albumen silver print beautifully captures the essence of this historic moment. In this image, Commandant Kernen stands tall and proud amidst his battalion. Dressed in a military uniform adorned with medals and insignias, he exudes authority and leadership. His stern expression reflects the seriousness of his duty to protect his country during a tumultuous period in French history. The composition is strikingly balanced, with rows of soldiers standing behind their commanding officer. Each face tells a story - some filled with determination while others reveal traces of apprehension or weariness. This snapshot freezes time, allowing us to glimpse into the lives of these brave men who dedicated themselves to defending their nation. Disdéri's expertise as a portrait photographer shines through in this print. The use of albumen silver process adds depth and richness to every detail captured on film – from intricate patterns on uniforms to facial features etched with character. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history, we are reminded not only of the sacrifices made by those who served but also how photography can immortalize moments that would otherwise fade away into oblivion.
