About the piece
Painted by Isidore Pils around 1855, this evocative study depicts the ceremonial distribution of the eagles and flag blessing at the Champ-de-Mars in 1852. The composition centers on a luminous white horse in the foreground, set against the bustling shadows of a gathered crowd and a majestic, red-draped archway that anchors the scene in the grandeur of the Second French Empire.
