EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking black and white portrait captures His Majesty Leopold II, King of the Belgians and Sovereign of the Congo Free State, in the late 1890s. The direct gaze of the monarch, with his thick beard and bushy mustache, exudes a sense of authority and power. The image was published in "The Graphic: An Illustrated Weekly Newspaper," Volume 41, January to June, 1890. Leopold II, born on April 16, 1835, was the King of the Belgians from 1865 until his death in 1909. He is best known for his personal rule over the Congo Free State, a large portion of central Africa, from 1885 until 1908. The Congo Free State was not a formal Belgian colony but was instead a personal possession of Leopold II, who exploited the region's natural resources, particularly rubber, through forced labor and brutal methods. The portrait shows the king dressed in formal attire, with a crisp white shirt, dark jacket, and a decorative necktie. The background is plain, drawing all the attention to the monarch's face and his intense gaze. The image is a testament to the power and influence of the press during the Victorian era, with "The Graphic" providing a visual record of important historical figures and events. The identity of the photographer remains unknown, adding to the mystery and intrigue of this powerful and evocative portrait.
