Armée française gendarmerie, Französische Armee Gendarmerie
A single-sheet printed chart from 1870 showing rows of uniformed French gendarmerie figures in bilingual French and German captions, likely made for military reference or print collectors. The sheet is a grid of near-identical standing and marching soldiers in tall shakos and long coats, with small full-length figures in a column at the left edge. A designer could take its tidy repeated-figure grid and its uniform silhouettes as a model for orderly icon sets or period costume references.
