EDITORS COMMENTS
Coup d'état in Portugal: The Head of State Defeated and Exiled - A poignant moment of farewell at Entrecampos Station, 1917. This evocative photograph captures a significant moment in Portuguese history, as the head of state, President Bernardino Machado, bids farewell to a last faithful supporter before his departure into exile following the successful coup d'état led by General Sidónio Pais. Machado, dressed in formal attire, is seen in the railway compartment of the special train, his face a mixture of determination and sadness as he shakes hands with a man in a hat, likely a member of his inner circle. The image, titled "Coup d'état in Portugal; The head of state defeated and exiled: in the station of Entre-Campos," was published in the French illustrated magazine "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924. The photograph offers a glimpse into the political turmoil of the early 20th century, a time of upheaval and change in Europe, particularly in Portugal during the 1910s. The image is a powerful reminder of the human cost of political instability and the consequences of power struggles, as Machado, the President of the Portuguese Republic, was forced to leave his country under duress. The photograph's historical significance lies in its portrayal of a pivotal moment in Portuguese politics, a moment that would shape the country's future for decades to come.
