Published by Maison Alfred Mame et fils, this particular illustration depicts a remarkable moment in history - the presentation of a Moustache poodle to Emperor Napoleon I. According to the text, this brave canine earned its place beside the emperor for its heroic act during the Battle of Austerlitz. The loyal poodle managed to save a flag from enemy hands, showcasing immense courage and loyalty. This extraordinary feat is beautifully depicted in this artwork. The attention to detail in both the drawing and coloring is truly impressive.
