1874 Bellecour Berne Jacques Lancers Moroccan Mounted Print Topographical


EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the French Mounted Moroccan Lancers at Janville during World War I. The Moroccan Lancers, a distinguished regiment of the French cavalry, were renowned for their bravery and skill in combat. The soldiers in this image, led by their officer Jean-Jacques Berne-Bellecour, are depicted in full regalia, their lances held high and their horses prancing, ready for action. The scene is set against the backdrop of the battlefield at Janville, a small town in northern France that was the site of intense fighting during the First World War. The ruins of buildings and the smoky, hazy skyline in the background serve as a stark reminder of the destructive nature of war. Jean-Jacques Berne-Bellecour, born in 1874, was a decorated military officer who served in the French Army during both the First and Second World Wars. He rose to the rank of Colonel and was awarded numerous decorations for his bravery and leadership. In this print, he is shown leading his troops with confidence and determination, his steely gaze fixed on the horizon. The Moroccan Lancers, also known as the Spahis, were a unique and important part of the French military during this period. Recruited from the French protectorate in Morocco, they brought with them a rich cultural heritage and a fierce fighting spirit. The combination of their traditional Moroccan attire and modern military equipment makes for a striking and iconic image. This print, created in the early 20th century, is a testament to the courage and sacrifice of the French Mounted Moroccan Lancers during World War I. It is a powerful reminder of the historical significance of this regiment and the role they played in shaping the course of the war.
