EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed Gustave Noblemaire, a prominent figure in the history of railway development. The portrait captures his dignified presence and commanding aura. Gustave Noblemaire's remarkable career began with his successful supervision of the construction of the Alger-Oran railway line until 1869. After this accomplishment, he returned to Paris to assume leadership of the Paris Lyon Mediterranee company, a position he held for an impressive 26 years. During his tenure at the company, Gustave Noblemaire played a pivotal role in implementing the Freycinet plan for railways, solidifying his status as one of its key architects. This visionary plan aimed to expand and modernize France's railway network, revolutionizing transportation infrastructure across the country. The engraving featured in "Le petit journal" on April 30th, 1892 beautifully immortalizes Gustave Noblemaire's contributions to French railroads. It serves as a testament to his dedication and expertise in shaping France's transportation landscape during that era. This exquisite print from Leonard de Selva's private collection offers us an intimate glimpse into history and pays homage to a man whose legacy continues to impact our lives today through enhanced connectivity and efficient travel systems.
