Vétéran 1796
Description
Cette lithographie est extraite de l'ouvrage intitulé «Collection des uniformes des armées françaises, de 1791 à 1814» dessinés par Horace Vernet et Eug. Lami, paru à Paris chez Gide fils en 1822. Les deux artistes qui ont fourni les dessins, Horace Vernet et Eugène Lami, se sont régulièrement intéressés aux types militaires, Vernet davantage encore que Lami puisqu'il est devenu peintre de batailles. Ce recueil s'inscrit dans la lignée des autres publications dédiées aux uniformes qui apparaissent dans la seconde moitié du XVIIIe siècle et vont se multiplier dans le courant du XIXe siècle. Un exemplaire complet de ce recueil est conservé à la bibliothèque du musée de l'Armée.
