EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the moment when French statesman Georges Clemenceau addressed a packed audience at the Cirque Fernando in Paris, 1885. The date of this image is significant, as it was taken during a pivotal period in Clemenceau's political career, which would eventually lead him to become the Prime Minister of France from 1906 to 1909 and again from 1917 to 1920. Clemenceau, born in 1841, is depicted here in the prime of his life, standing confidently before his audience, his dark coat and moustache adding to his distinguished appearance. The dimly lit Cirque Fernando, a popular venue for political meetings and rallies in Paris during the late 19th century, is filled with an engaged and attentive audience, all eager to hear the words of this charismatic leader. The historical significance of this image extends beyond the political sphere, as it also serves as a snapshot of Parisian life during this era. The Cirque Fernando, which was located in the Montmartre district, was a popular entertainment venue, and this photograph offers a glimpse into the city's rich cultural and political history. Georges Clemenceau's legacy as a French statesman is indelible, and this photograph offers a unique and intriguing window into his past, as well as the political climate of Paris during the late 19th century. With its captivating composition and historical significance, this image is a must-have for any collection of French political history or Parisian history.
