Imperial guard flag bearer - figurine Collection Napoleon
The eagle-bearers of the Empire held a crucial role in Napoleon’s armies. Tasked with carrying the imperial eagle, a symbol of unity and glory for each regiment, they embodied the honor of the Grande Armée. These soldiers, often chosen from the most valiant veterans, had to demonstrate exceptional courage, as the eagle was both an inspiration for the troops and a prime target for the enemy.
Created in 1804 by order of Napoleon Bonaparte, the imperial eagle was far more than a mere military emblem. Cast in bronze and mounted atop each regiment’s staff, this figure, inspired by Antiquity, represented the power and ambition of the Empire. Losing an eagle in battle was considered an unbearable disgrace, while capturing one was seen as a celebrated act of bravery.
During battles, the eagle-bearer stood at the heart of the action, surrounded by a dedicated guard. Many perished defending their emblem, showing unwavering devotion to their regiment and their Emperor. Today, eagle-bearers are remembered as heroic figures, symbols of the patriotism and discipline that defined Napoleon’s armies.
