EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a significant moment in history, showcasing the military review conducted by Paul Doumer, the Governor-General of French Indochina, and the Emperor of Annam in Hanoi, Indochina in 1902. The image portrays an impressive display of power and authority as Doumer and the emperor inspect a procession of soldiers on horseback. Doumer's role as Governor-General from 1897 to 1902 highlights his influence over Annam, which was part of French Indochina at that time. This event symbolizes the close relationship between France and its colonies during this period. Le Petit Journal featured this illustration on April 27th, 1902, emphasizing its significance within contemporary media. The vibrant colors bring life to the scene while highlighting the grandeur associated with royalty and military personnel. This photograph not only showcases historical figures but also provides insight into transportation methods prevalent during that era. Carriages line up along the road as people gather to witness this remarkable spectacle. It is important to note that Paul Doumer went on to become President of France in 1931; however, his promising political career was tragically cut short when he was assassinated just one year later. This print serves as a valuable artifact documenting an era marked by colonialism and warfare. It offers viewers a glimpse into both Vietnamese culture and French influence in Indochina during the early twentieth century.
