EDITORS COMMENTS
Deux Departs; A Brest: Le President Wilson, Aboard the Canniere qui va l'amener au "George Washington"" is a captivating photograph from the year 1919, taken during the aftermath of the First World War. The image, created by an unknown artist, is taken from "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" published by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924. The photograph depicts President Thomas Woodrow Wilson of the United States, standing tall and confident on the deck of a boat named "Canniere," which is about to depart from the port of Brest, Finistere, Brittany, France. Wilson, wearing a suit and holding a hat in his hand, is surrounded by a group of men, likely French politicians and military personnel, who are waving tricolour and American flags in celebration of the victorious alliance between France and the United States during World War I. The background of the photograph is filled with other boats and ships, some of which are also adorned with flags, adding to the sense of excitement and jubilation. The image captures a moment of historical significance, as Wilson was on a visit to Europe to negotiate the Treaty of Versailles and promote the League of Nations. The photograph is a testament to the strong alliance between France and the United States during the First World War and the spirit of victory and celebration that followed. The unknown artist has expertly captured the mood of the moment, making this photograph a valuable addition to any collection of historical images from the 20th century.
