EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the historic moment when French President Felix Faure returned home from his triumphant state visit to Russia in 1897. The vibrant colors of the lithograph bring to life the scene at the Chamber of Commerce in Dunkirk, where crowds eagerly awaited their beloved leader's arrival. The image showcases a harmonious blend of symbols representing both nations' alliance and friendship. A train and ship symbolize the journey taken by President Faure across Europe and Asia, highlighting the significance of this diplomatic mission. The tricolor flags proudly wave in celebration, embodying national pride for both France and Russia. President Faure's successful trip is evident as he stands tall amidst cheering crowds, demonstrating his popularity among the people. This snapshot into late 19th-century politics reveals a pivotal moment in European history when international relations played a crucial role. The illustration originally appeared in Le Petit Journal on September 12th, 1897, further emphasizing its historical importance.
