EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Amedee Courbet, a distinguished French admiral in 1880. Known for his remarkable achievements, Courbet was appointed as the Governor of New Caledonia in May of that year. His leadership skills were further demonstrated through his victories in both the Tonkin Campaign (1883-1886) and the Sino-French War (1884-1885). The photograph, sourced from Album de Photographies titled "Dans L Intimite de Personnages Illustres" published between 1860 and 1920 by Editions MD in Paris, provides a glimpse into the life of this influential figure during the late 19th century. Dressed immaculately in his naval uniform adorned with epaulettes and buttons, Courbet exudes authority and sophistication. This portrait not only captures Courbet's commanding presence but also symbolizes France's colonial ambitions during that period.
