EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a poignant moment between Leopold II, the second King of Belgium, and his daughter in 1904. The lithograph, created by Georges d'Ostoya, showcases the royal father-daughter bond against a backdrop of European monarchy. Leopold II reigned from 1865 to 1909 and is renowned for his controversial role in founding and exploiting the Congo Free State as a private venture. This historical context adds depth to the image, highlighting both Leopold's position as a powerful monarch and his complex legacy. The color illustration emanates elegance and sophistication, reflecting the opulence associated with European royalty during this period. Leopold II appears regal yet approachable while standing beside his young princess daughter. Their connection is palpable through their shared gaze and gentle touch. Published in L'Assiette au Beurre magazine in September 1904, this litho offers us a glimpse into early twentieth-century French artistry. It serves as an important historical artifact that not only celebrates familial relationships within royal circles but also invites contemplation on colonialism's impact on Africa. This image reminds us of the intricate intertwining of power dynamics, family ties, and societal influences that shaped Europe at the turn of the century. As we observe Leopold II and his daughter frozen in time through this lithograph print, we are compelled to reflect upon history's complexities and its enduring relevance today.
