Antique Print of a Japanese Military Procession by Chedel, 1746

About the Item

Antique print titled 'Marche Militaire du Japon'. Copper engraving of a Japanese military march. This print originates from 'Histoire générale des voyages, ou nouvelle collection de toutes les relations de voyages par mer et par terre' by Abbé Prévost. This is an antique print titled "Marche Militaire du Japon," created by Chedel in 1746. The print depicts a Japanese military march, showcasing a procession of soldiers and officials. The soldiers are shown in formation, wearing traditional attire and carrying spears. Some individuals are on horseback, likely indicating higher-ranking officials or commanders. The scene is set in a rural landscape with a thatched-roof building on the right and vegetation typical of Japan. The sky above is filled with clouds, adding depth and atmosphere to the scene. The detailed linework and composition provide a historical glimpse into Japanese military practices as viewed by an 18th-century European artist. Artists and Engravers: The original volumes of 'Histoire Géneral des Voyages' were written by Antoine François Prévost d'Exiles, a French author, novelist, theologian, natural historian, and a priest of the Jesuit and Benedictine orders, but continued by numerous other authors after Prévost's death.
