[ Spectators Murmuring ] [ Spectators Murmuring ] Number of the draw by Emmanuel Levy de Bischheim. Watercolor and pencil. (Holes and lack of paper). 29 x 18 cm at sight The conscript number in a frame is surmounted by a basket of flowers . Below the number, a scale perhaps evokes the idea of drawing lots, while the axe and knives evoke the profession or weapon of Emmanuel Levy. The conscript's number played an important role in the life of the person drawing it. It determined if he was going to join the army, how long he would serve and in which corps. That's why sometimes a conscription souvenir was made. The ones shown here are typical of Alsatian conscription memories. They show the number of the conscript, the dates of the draw, the class, the name of the draw and the place.
