EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Louis-Leon-Cesar Faidherbe, a prominent figure in 19th-century France. Taken around 1876 by the talented photographer Etienne Carjat, this woodburytype image is part of the renowned "Galerie Contemporaine Litteraire, Artistique" periodical from 1879. Faidherbe's striking presence commands attention as he dons his military uniform with gold braid accents and impressive epaulettes. As a colonial administrator, Faidherbe played a significant role in shaping French policies abroad. His distinguished career and dedication to his country are evident through his confident gaze and regal headgear. Carjat masterfully captures Faidherbe's essence, highlighting not only his position but also his personality.

Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago, this print serves as a reminder of an era when men like Faidherbe held important roles in society. It invites viewers to contemplate the concept of leadership and reflect on how individuals can shape their countries' destinies. Etienne Carjat's artistic prowess shines through this remarkable piece that immortalizes Louis-Leon-Cesar Faidherbe—a man who left an indelible mark on both French history and colonial administration.
