EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a boat gracefully gliding along the river of Hue in Vietnam. The intricate drawing, created by Th. Weber, beautifully illustrates the story of an eight-day embassy mission to the Kingdom of Annam in 1875. Lieutenant Brossard de Corbigny, attached to the mission, recounts his experiences through this engraving featured in Le tour du monde magazine directed by Edouard Charton. The scene depicts a tranquil moment on the river as the boat navigates its way through calm waters. A young girl stands at the front of the vessel, her parasol shielding her from the sun's rays. This image offers a glimpse into daily life in Vietnam during that time period. The attention to detail is remarkable; every stroke brings life to this snapshot from history. The composition showcases not only the beauty of Vietnamese culture but also highlights public transportation and its significance within their society. Preserved within Leonard de Selva's private collection, this print serves as a testament to Theodore Weber's artistic talent and his ability to capture moments frozen in time. It invites viewers to immerse themselves in a different era and explore an enchanting corner of Southeast Asia through artistry and imagination.
