French Zouaves, Fischbach No.2

 Hello,

Today I'm showing you Plate No. 2 by Fischbach.























It depicts 27 French Zouaves in their post-1872 uniforms. The graphics were drawn by Alfred Touchemolin, and the plates were produced between 1873 and 1914.



In detail, you can see a total of four different officers, including one with a flag, three sergeants, two corporals, three clairons, and 15 soldiers.



The figures measure 9.5 cm.

Best regards,

Andreas

French Cuirassiers, Fischbach No.8

Hello,

Today I'm showing you print sheet number 8 from Fischbach (Strasbourg). 






















It demonstrates the fine art of paper soldier production. Finely detailed printing, high register precision, vibrant oil colors, and the silver as a true metallic color! Unfortunately, this is the only Fischbach plate I've come across in the almost twenty years since I started buying paper soldiers. As far as I know, there were a total of ten different plates of the French Army in uniforms from 1872 onwards. The drawings of the figures were originally by Alfred Touchemolin. The figures are about 13 cm tall, and the riders are about 9 to 9.5 cm tall.







Best regards,

Andreas
