EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Emile Ollivier, a prominent French statesman of the 19th century. Taken in approximately 1893 by renowned artist Charles Reutlinger, the image portrays Ollivier as a distinguished and influential figure. With his spectacles perched on his nose and a neatly trimmed beard adorning his face, he exudes an air of wisdom and authority. Ollivier's political journey is reflected in this portrait. Initially an ardent republican who opposed Emperor Napoleon III, he gradually steered the Emperor towards liberal reforms while becoming increasingly entangled in Napoleon's grip. Eventually, Ollivier found himself serving as prime minister when Napoleon fell from power. The monochrome composition adds depth to the photograph, emphasizing Ollivier's serious demeanor and direct gaze. His attire - a Victorian-style bow tie and jacket - exemplifies the fashion trends of that era. Preserved through time on this vintage cigarette card from Felix Potin's collection, this print serves as a historical artifact capturing an important moment in French politics. It offers viewers a glimpse into the life of one man who played a significant role in shaping France during that period. As we observe Emile Ollivier through Charles Reutlinger's lens, we are reminded of how individuals can evolve within complex political landscapes while leaving their mark on history.
