EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Merchant Mission. The return of Commander Jean Baptiste Marchand" takes us back to a significant moment in history. The image depicts the long-awaited arrival of Commander Jean Baptiste Marchand's escort from Abyssinia in Djibouti. The scene is filled with anticipation as the French merchant mission reaches its destination after a challenging journey through Africa. This print, originally featured in "Le Peute Parisien" on May 21,1899, captures the essence of colonialism and exploration during that era. Commander Jean Baptiste Marchand (1863-1934) stands at the center of attention, symbolizing France's ambitions and influence in Ethiopia. His return marks an important milestone for both nations involved. The artist behind this remarkable engraving is Stefano Bianchetti, whose skillful craftsmanship brings every detail to life. Through his artistry, we are transported to a time when expeditions like these were celebrated and documented by renowned publications such as "Le Peute Parisien". This particular print now resides within a private collection but continues to serve as a testament to historical events that shaped our world. It serves as a reminder of the complex relationship between European powers and African countries during this period. As we gaze upon this evocative image, we are reminded of the significance of exploration and diplomacy in shaping our global landscape.
