EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print showcases the Theatre of the French Marines in Dakar, Senegal during the 19th century. The colour lithograph, created by Frederic Theodore Lix and featured in Le Petit Journal on June 11,1894, offers a glimpse into the world of performing arts and leisure in West Africa. The image captures an intriguing scene filled with actors adorned in elaborate costumes, embodying various characters on stage. The audience can be seen relaxing and watching attentively as they immerse themselves in this colonial entertainment experience. Flags representing both France and Senegal proudly wave above the stage, symbolizing the influence of French culture within their overseas territories. As we delve into this historical moment frozen in time, it becomes evident that theatre served as a means to bridge cultural gaps between France and its colonies. It provided soldiers stationed in Dakar with a much-needed escape from their duties while simultaneously showcasing French artistic expression to local audiences. This print not only highlights the theatrical performance itself but also sheds light on broader themes such as colonialism and cross-cultural exchange. It serves as a reminder of how art has always played an integral role in shaping societies throughout history.
