Striking antique French military lithograph depicting members of the famed Swiss Guards regiment during the reign of Louis XVI, dated 1786 within the plate. This richly detailed composition features a standard bearer and mounted colonel in ceremonial uniforms with vivid regimental colors and exceptional period costume detail. Executed after Alfred de Marbot and produced in Paris in the late 19th century, the print exemplifies the romantic historical military illustrations that became highly collectible decorative works during the Victorian era. The vibrant reds, blues, greens, and gold accents remain especially eye-catching and display beautifully. An elegant piece for traditional interiors, European-inspired decor, libraries, studies, gallery walls, or maximalist spaces.
