EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to a moment of warmth and camaraderie between two powerful leaders and their families. The President of the Republic Felix Faure, during his visit to Russia, is captured in an intimate setting with Tsar Nicholas II and his family. As the camera lens focuses on this heartwarming scene, we see President Faure kneeling before the great duchesses Olga and Tatiana, offering them dolls. Their mother, the Impress Alexandra Fedorovna, looks on with delight as her daughters receive these precious gifts. The image exudes a sense of unity and friendship between nations as political boundaries fade away in the presence of innocent joy. It serves as a reminder that even amidst diplomatic discussions and international affairs, there is always room for personal connections that transcend politics. This engraving from "Le petit journal" dated September 19th, 1897 captures not only a historical moment but also highlights the shared humanity among world leaders. The Selva Collection has preserved this snapshot of history for us to reflect upon today. Through Leonard de Selva's skillful photography work, we are able to witness this tender exchange frozen in time. It reminds us that behind every leader lies a person capable of love and compassion - qualities that can bridge gaps between nations and foster understanding. This print invites us to appreciate both its artistic beauty and its historical significance – an invaluable glimpse into a bygone era where diplomacy was intertwined with genuine human connection.
