EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Charles Denis Bourbaki, a prominent French soldier and general, in 1868. Known for his role during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-1871, Bourbaki commanded an army that attempted to break through the Prussian lines at Belfort. However, their efforts were in vain, leading them to seek refuge across the border into neutral Switzerland where they were disarmed. The image showcases General Bourbaki's distinguished appearance with his decorated uniform adorned with medals and epaulettes. His face is framed by a well-groomed mustache, exuding strength and determination. The photograph provides a glimpse into the life of this influential figure from France's history. Despite his military achievements, this portrait also reveals the inner struggles faced by General Bourbaki. Following his defeat at Belfort, he was overwhelmed by despair and attempted suicide. This poignant moment captured on film serves as a reminder of the immense pressures faced by leaders during times of war. Preserved within Album de Photographies dans L'Intimite de Personnages Illustres from 1865-1905, this print offers us a rare glimpse into the life of Charles Denis Bourbaki. It stands as a testament to both his military prowess and personal struggles during one of France's most significant conflicts in history - the Franco-Prussian War.
