EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the creativity and imagination of French School in the late 19th century. Titled "Letters A as gunner, b as baker, c as foothunter and D as dragon" it presents an intriguing ABC military alphabet - abecedary. The image features four soldiers representing each letter of the alphabet. The letter A stands tall, embodying a powerful gunner ready for battle. B takes on the role of a skilled baker, perhaps providing nourishment to fellow troops during wartime. C portrays a determined foothunter, showcasing agility and stealth in their pursuit. Lastly, D transforms into a fearsome dragon-like creature symbolizing strength and ferocity. Imaging of Epinal from 1870-1880 beautifully captures this unique concept within its dimensions of 20.5x15cm. This particular print is part of a private collection that has preserved this historical gem. Photographed by Jean Duvallon, this artwork transports us back to an era where creativity thrived amidst military contexts. It serves as a reminder that even within war-stricken times, art can flourish and bring joy to those who witness it. This remarkable piece not only celebrates French history but also highlights the ingenuity behind using visual representations to teach young minds about letters and their corresponding sounds through imaginative storytelling.
