EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration by Emile Courtet dit Cohl takes us back to the scandalous Panama Affair of the late 19th century. The image, which graced the cover of The New Moon on September 3,1882, is a visual feast for the eyes. A golden hue dominates the scene, symbolizing both wealth and corruption. The intricate details in this artwork transport us to a world filled with intrigue and deceit. Levy Cremieux's Egyptian Franco Bank stands prominently in the foreground, representing one of many financial institutions involved in this scandalous affair. De Lesseps Ferdinand and Fontane Marius, secretary of the Suez Company, are depicted alongside other key figures such as M Durieux from Industrial and Commercial Credit and Mr. Germain from Credit Lyonnais. As we gaze at this print, it becomes evident that gold plays a significant role in these illicit dealings. It serves as a metaphorical currency that fuels greed and dishonesty within these powerful institutions. Emile Courtet dit Cohl's skillful use of color and composition captures our attention immediately. This illustration not only tells a story but also invites viewers to delve deeper into history's murky waters. Through his artistry, Courtet reminds us of humanity's capacity for both greatness and moral downfall. The Panama Scandals may have tarnished reputations during their time but continue to serve as cautionary tales even today.
