EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a French school textbook map of Indochina from 1905. The vibrant colours and intricate details bring to life the colonial era in this region. Created by an anonymous French School artist, this map offers a fascinating glimpse into the past. Indochina, known as Indo Chine Francaise during that time, was a significant part of the vast French empire. This map highlights various regions including Tonkin, Tonking, Cambodge (Cambodia), Annam, Laos, and Cochinchine. It serves as both an educational tool and a testament to France's colonial influence in Southeast Asia. The meticulousness with which this map was created is evident in every stroke of colour lithography. It not only provides geographical information but also reflects the political boundaries and administrative divisions of that period. As we admire this historical artifact now housed in a private collection at eArchives Charmet, it reminds us of the complex history shared between France and its former colonies. This image invites us to reflect on how borders have shifted over time and how they continue to shape our understanding of nations today. Let us appreciate this remarkable piece for its artistic value while acknowledging its significance within the context of colonialism's impact on Indochina's rich cultural heritage.
