Franse patrouille, 1832 1832 - 1833

"Franse patrouille, 1832" is a lithograph by Nicolas Toussaint Charlet, a French artist known for his depictions of military life. The artwork, completed between 1832 and 1833, captures a group of French soldiers on horseback, presumably on a reconnaissance mission. Charlet's signature detail is evident in the subtle nuances of the soldiers' expressions and the everyday realism of their uniforms and equipment. This piece is a testament to Charlet's ability to portray the human side of warfare, offering a glimpse into the life of French soldiers during a significant historical period. The lithograph is currently held in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
