This photo print, titled "Colony of Texas, General Lallemand at Champ d Asile, 1818" captures a significant moment in history. The image showcases General Lallemand, the founder of the French colony in Texas known as Champ d Asile, surrounded by a group of settlers who sought refuge from political turmoil. The scene depicts a bustling agricultural landscape with colonists ploughing fields and working together to build their new lives in North America. This photograph provides a glimpse into the determination and resilience of these Bonapartist emigrants during the Restauration period. General Lallemand's leadership is evident as he stands tall amidst his fellow refugees. Despite being condemned in absentia, he fearlessly led this ambitious endeavor to establish an asylum for those seeking solace from their troubled pasts. In this image, we see not only hardworking laborers but also families who have found hope and security within this newfound community. A mother tenderly holds her child while others engage in handshakes symbolizing unity and support among the settlers.

It encapsulates both the hardships endured and the triumphs achieved through collective effort.
