EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Admiral Linois, a prominent figure in naval history. The engraving, created by Antoine Maurin, beautifully captures the essence of this esteemed officer. Admiral Charles Durand de Linois (1761-1848) was a distinguished French naval officer who played a significant role during the First Empire era. Known for his victory at Algeciras in 1801 over Sir James Saumarez, he demonstrated his strategic brilliance and prowess on the seas. In this portrait, Admiral Linois stands tall and proud in his uniform, exuding an air of authority befitting his rank. His stern gaze reflects both determination and wisdom acquired through years of service to his country. The artist's attention to detail is evident as every line etched into the engraving brings out the character and charisma of this remarkable man. From the intricate patterns on his uniform to the meticulous rendering of facial features, Maurin has masterfully captured Admiral Linois' likeness. Displayed against a stark background, this image highlights not only the subject but also emphasizes their significance within historical context. It serves as a reminder of Admiral Linois' contribution to France's maritime supremacy during an era marked by intense rivalries between European powers. Preserved in Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this print offers viewers an opportunity to delve into history and appreciate one man's indelible mark on naval warfare.
