EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating cover of Les Hommes d aujourd hui, number 289, showcases an exquisite illustration by Manuel Luque.

The image depicts de Brazza against a backdrop of Earth, symbolizing his extensive travels and conquests. The engraving beautifully portrays the explorer's determination and curiosity as he gazes off into the distance. Luque's attention to detail is remarkable; every line and stroke adds depth to this satirical drawing.
