EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historical moment of Ponce de Balagner at the Bab-Azoun Gate, a significant event commemorating the French Expeditionary Force's capture of Algiers in 1830. Engraved by Eugene Charles Francois Guerard and based on a work by Denis Auguste Marie Raffet, this lithograph showcases the bravery and determination of both French troops and Algerian locals during this intense battle. The image portrays Ponce de Balagner, a courageous commander adorned with a plumed helmet, leading his troops into an attack on horseback. The city walls of Algiers serve as a dramatic backdrop to this scene, symbolizing the resistance faced by these soldiers. Amidst the chaos of war, fallen soldiers lie wounded or dead while Arab civilians observe from afar. The print not only highlights the military aspect but also offers glimpses into other aspects such as medicine and wildlife. Horses play a crucial role in warfare, serving as loyal companions to their riders. Meanwhile, injured soldiers receive medical attention amidst this tumultuous environment. This artwork provides valuable insights into North African history and Arab civilization during that era. It sheds light on Algeria's struggle for independence against colonial forces while showcasing its vibrant culture and diverse population. As part of The Stapleton Collection held in private ownership, this print serves as an important reminder of past conflicts and acts as a testament to human resilience in times of adversity.
