EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by French School, dating back to the 19th century, showcases an intriguing depiction of military life. The image features four letters - Q, R, S, and T - representing different aspects of the armed forces. Each letter is associated with a unique concept: Q symbolizes neighborhood, R represents Reservist, s signifies Saint Cyrien (referring to students at the prestigious Saint Cyr Military Academy), and T stands for Turco. The alphabet-themed composition serves as an educational tool known as ABC military or abecedary. It provides a visual representation of various elements within the army while also aiding in teaching children their letters. This particular artwork was part of the Imaging of Epinal collection created between 1870-1880. The photograph measures 20.5x15cm and belongs to a private collection that has graciously shared it with us. The image captures not only the essence of military discipline but also highlights historical significance during this period in France's history. Credit for this remarkable piece goes to Jean Duvallon who skillfully captured this snapshot from yesteryears. With its rich cultural context and artistic merit, this print offers viewers a glimpse into both French military traditions and educational practices from long ago.
