EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enchanting city of Saigon, now known as Ho Chi Minh City, in Vietnam. The image is an engraving from "La France illustree: geography, history, statistical administration" by V. -A. Malt-Brown, published in 1884. It offers a glimpse into the architectural beauty and colonial influence that characterized this bustling metropolis during the 19th century. The intricate details captured by French School artist Stefano Bianchetti transport us back in time to a period marked by French colonialism in Indochina. The prominent church bell tower stands tall amidst the Vietnamese landscape, symbolizing both cultural diversity and religious heritage. The composition exudes a sense of grandeur as it portrays the view of Saigon's cityscape with its distinctive buildings and charming streets. This historical artifact not only serves as a visual representation but also provides valuable insights into Vietnam's past. With its delicate engravings and meticulous craftsmanship, this artwork exemplifies Asian artistry combined with European influences. Its inclusion in private collections speaks to its significance as a treasured piece of history. As we admire this remarkable engraving today, we are reminded of Saigon's rich heritage and how it has evolved over time while retaining its unique identity.
