EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable monument erected in honor of Aristide Boucicaut, an influential entrepreneur and businessman. Located in his hometown of Belleme, Orne, this monument stands as a testament to Boucicaut's immense contributions to the world of commerce. Alongside his wife Marguerite, who was also a trader and philanthropist, they revolutionized the concept of department stores with their creation of Bon Marche. The bust sculpted by Henri Chapu is truly striking. Notably, on the right temple of Boucicaut's likeness, Chapu has depicted the bump that afflicted him throughout his life. This unique feature gave rise to the popular expression "busse du commerce" forever linking it to Boucicaut's legacy. Captured on a postcard from the early 20th century by Patrice Cartier, this image transports us back in time to witness this grand tribute firsthand. The attention to detail and craftsmanship evident in both the sculpture and its surroundings speak volumes about the respect and admiration held for Boucicaut by his friends. As we gaze upon this photograph print today, we are reminded not only of Aristide Boucicaut's entrepreneurial prowess but also of his enduring impact on society. His innovative spirit continues to inspire generations after him while leaving an indelible mark on history.
