EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense duel between Theophile Malo Corret de La Tour of Auvergne and his opponent in Huningue. Illustrated by Job (Jacques Marie Gaston Onfray and Breville) for the book "La Tour d Auvergne, First Grenadier of France" in 1902, this image showcases a significant moment in French history. In this engraving, we witness the clash of two rivals as they engage in combat sport with their swords. The tension is palpable as both men display their skill and determination to overcome each other. Their casual yet focused stances reveal the seriousness of their opposition. Theophile Malo Corret de La Tour, also known as Latour, was a prominent figure during the 18th century. His bravery and prowess made him an iconic grenadier of France. This depiction not only highlights his military achievements but also sheds light on the disputes that were prevalent during that era. The intricate details captured by Jacques-Marie bring this historical event to life. From the positioning of every arm to the expressions etched on their faces, every element tells a story of honor and rivalry. Preserved within a private collection, this photograph allows us to delve into French history while appreciating Job's artistic talent. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's archives, we are transported back to a time when duels were fought with swords instead of words - an era where conflicts were settled through physical prowess rather than diplomacy or negotiation.
