EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Tonkinese shooter, depicted in an engraving by Y. Pranishnikoff after a photograph taken in 1884. The image was intended to illustrate the story "Trente mois au Tonkin" (Thirty Months in Tonkin) written by Doctor Hocquard and published in "Le Tour du Monde" magazine in 1889. Directed by Edouard Charton, this renowned publication from Hachette, Paris aimed to provide readers with fascinating insights into different cultures and regions around the world. The engraving captures the essence of colonialism during that era, portraying a military figure dressed in a traditional uniform against the backdrop of Vietnam's scenic landscape. This powerful representation serves as a reminder of the complex history between Western powers and Southeast Asian countries. The artist, Ivan Pranishnikoff (1841-1909), skillfully brings forth intricate details through his engravings, emphasizing both the beauty and cultural significance of this Tonkinese shooter. The black-and-white aesthetic adds depth and intensity to the image while highlighting its historical context. Leonard de Selva has preserved this remarkable piece within his private collection, allowing us to appreciate its artistic value today. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to an important period where exploration and documentation played crucial roles in shaping our understanding of diverse societies across continents.
