The late Marshal St. Arnaud,1854. Creator: Unknown.

The late Marshal St. Arnaud, 1854. French officer and Marshal of France who fought at the Battle of the Alma during the Crimean War. 'In 1852 the General was made a Marshal of France, named Senator, and received the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honour. The Marshal left the Ministry of War to command the Army of the East, and died, of angina pectoris, on the 29th [September]. The Moniteur in announcing the sad event, says: "All France will associate itself to the deep regret felt by the Emperor. This cruel loss mixes up a national mourning with the joy caused by the last news from the East. Having rendered such great services, Marshal St. Arnaud succumbs at the very moment he had acquired, by the expedition of the Crimea, and the signal victory of the Alma, glorious claims to the gratitude of the country"'.
