The pair represents two separate moments in the French Revolution: the uprising against Louis XVI and the fall of the monarchy in 1792. One figure is a drummer, marked ‘Avant le combat 1791’. The other is an infantryman, marked ‘Apres le combat 1792’, who smokes a pipe as he rests on his musket. Signed by the artist.
French, circa 1870.
