Created in 1878, this artwork exemplifies Meissonier's dedication to realism and his fascination with the grandeur and tragedy of war. The painting depicts a cuirassier, a type of cavalry soldier known for wearing a cuirass or breastplate, moments before the charge into battle. Meissonier's skill in rendering the textures of the armor, the tension in the soldier's posture, and the anticipation of the forthcoming combat is evident in this work.

The painting is a testament to Meissonier's reputation as a master of fine detail and his ability to convey a sense of immediacy and drama. His works were highly prized by collectors of the time for their historical accuracy and technical precision. "Cuirassier Avant La Charge" is no exception, showcasing the artist's talent for capturing the essence of military life and the emotional intensity of its subjects. The artwork is part of Meissonier's broader oeuvre, which contributed significantly to the genre of history painting in the 19th century and reflected the contemporary interest in the Napoleonic legend.
