EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the distinguished visage of Eugène Henri Brisson, a prominent French statesman who graced the political landscape of late 19th-century France. Born in 1835, Brisson rose to prominence as a dedicated and capable politician, serving two tenures as the Prime Minister of France – the first from 1885 to 1886 and the second from 1898. Brisson's first term as Prime Minister came during a tumultuous period in French history, marked by the Dreyfus Affair, a controversial military scandal that tested the nation's commitment to justice and equality. Brisson, a champion of truth and fairness, played a pivotal role in shedding light on the injustice and ultimately securing a pardon for Alfred Dreyfus, an innocent Jewish officer falsely accused of treason. His second term as Prime Minister, in 1898, was marked by a focus on domestic issues, including education, labor, and social welfare. Brisson's dedication to the betterment of the French people earned him the respect and admiration of many. This evocative image of Eugène Henri Brisson, taken in 1912, serves as a poignant reminder of a man who dedicated his life to the service of his country and the pursuit of justice. As a French statesman and two-time Prime Minister, Brisson's legacy continues to resonate in the annals of French history.
