EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print showcases Paul Doumer, the Governor General of French Indochina during the 19th century. The image captures his dignified presence and distinguished appearance, with a well-groomed beard that adds to his aura of authority. As an influential politician and administrator, Doumer played a significant role in shaping the course of French colonialism in Indochina. The portrait exudes a sense of power and determination, reflecting Doumer's commitment to his responsibilities as Governor General. His position allowed him to oversee various aspects of governance in the region, including economic development and infrastructure projects. Interestingly, this lithograph also highlights an important milestone in Doumer's career - he would later become President of France. This transition from governor general to president speaks volumes about his political acumen and leadership qualities. The engraving was originally created for Le Petit Journal on November 6th, 1898 - a renowned publication known for its illustrations capturing significant events and personalities of the time. It now resides within a private collection but is made accessible through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder. This historical artwork not only offers us a glimpse into the life of Paul Doumer but also serves as a reminder of France's colonial past in Indochina. It invites contemplation on themes such as politics, power dynamics, cultural exchange between nations, and the lasting impact of colonization on both sides.
