EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures a panoramic view of the Iles du Salut, showcasing the infamous Ile du Diable where Ex-Captain Dreyfus was unjustly imprisoned. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print offers a glimpse into a dark chapter of history. The image reveals various elements within the island complex. From the tanyard and parade ground to the military hospital and guard house, it showcases the infrastructure that once held refractory prisoners like Dreyfus captive. The stone hut where he resided can be seen alongside other notable landmarks such as the coal house, semaphore tower, telephone lines, dockyard, convent, and chapel. As one's gaze wanders across this vast panorama, it becomes apparent how isolated and desolate these islands were. The sheer magnitude of their remoteness adds to our understanding of Dreyfus' ordeal during his time here. This engraving serves as both a historical document and a testament to human resilience in times of adversity. It reminds us of Alfred Dreyfus' struggle for justice against prejudice and wrongful imprisonment. Moreover, it sheds light on France's colonial past and its impact on individuals who fell victim to systemic injustice. Preserved in private collections today but originally published in The Graphic on August 12th, 1899; this lithograph allows us to reflect upon an important moment in European history while appreciating its artistic value through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform.
