EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the portraits of explorers Gabriel Bonvalot and Prince Henri d Orleans, taken during their remarkable voyage. Gabriel Bonvalot, a renowned author and adventurer, is depicted alongside Prince Henri d Orleans, who served as the photographer for their expedition. The engraving by Thiriat beautifully captures the essence of these intrepid explorers. The image serves as an illustration for Gabriel Bonvalot's enthralling story titled "From Paris to Tonkin, through unknown Tibet" which was published in 1889-1890 in Le tour du monde, nouveau journal des voyages under the direction of Edouard Charton. This edition was released by Hachette in Paris during the second semester of 1891. The portrait exudes a sense of determination and curiosity that defined these brave individuals. Their gazes reflect both excitement and anticipation as they embarked on their daring journey into uncharted territories. Through this photograph, we are transported back to a time when exploration held an air of mystery and danger. Preserved within a private collection today, this historical artifact offers us a glimpse into the past and reminds us of humanity's relentless pursuit to discover new frontiers. It stands as a testament to the courage exhibited by those who dared to venture into unknown lands in search of knowledge and adventure. Leonard de Selva skillfully captured this evocative image from Fine Art Finder with his lens while ensuring it remains accessible for all to appreciate.
