EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Alphonse Humbert, a prominent figure in French political history, during the late 19th century. Born in 1844, Humbert was a journalist, Republican, and a fervent supporter of the Blanquist movement, which advocated for revolutionary action to establish a socialist government. During the Paris Commune of 1871, Humbert published Le Père Duchene, a newspaper that became the voice of the revolutionary government. However, when the Commune was suppressed, Humbert was deported to New Caledonia. Following the amnesty granted to the Communards in 1880, Humbert returned to France and was elected as a municipal councilor in Paris. Known for his belief in minimal government intervention, Humbert famously declared, "The best government is that which governs least." This statement reflects his commitment to individual freedoms and limited state power, principles that resonated with many French citizens during this tumultuous period in their country's history. Despite his radical political views, Humbert's legacy extends beyond the realm of revolution and chaos. His journalistic pursuits and unwavering commitment to Republican ideals continue to inspire generations of French political thinkers and activists. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of a pivotal moment in French history and the enduring impact of one man's unwavering convictions.
