EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the early 19th century, specifically to the years 1814-1815. Titled "Gendarmes of the Royal Guard" it is a remarkable piece from Eugene Titeux's renowned work, "Histoire de la maison militaire du Roi de 1814 a 1830" published in Paris in 1890. The image showcases an elite group of soldiers known as the Gendarmes, who served as part of the Royal Guard during this period. Dressed in their distinctive uniforms, these brave men exude strength and authority. With their tall bearskin hats and polished breastplates, they embody both elegance and power. As we gaze at this historical photograph, we are transported to a time when France was undergoing significant political changes. The year 1814 marked Napoleon Bonaparte's abdication as Emperor and the restoration of Louis XVIII to power. These Gendarmes were entrusted with protecting the monarchy during this tumultuous era. Eugene Titeux's meticulous documentation allows us to appreciate not only their physical appearance but also gain insight into their role within French society at that time. This print serves as a valuable reminder of our rich history and pays homage to those who dedicated themselves to safeguarding royalty amidst uncertain times
