EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image from the 19th century, we find a group of elegant European gentlemen and ladies gathered in front of the Chalet Cordier in Trouville, France. Among them is the renowned French linguist, historian, and author, Henri Cordier (1849-1925), who is warmly greeting the former French Prime Minister, Léon Gambetta, at the entrance of his residence. The Chalet Cordier, now known as the residence of Thiers, was a popular gathering place for the bourgeoisie during the Belle Époque. The photograph, an engraving by Capuz published in the Spanish and American Illustration in 1872, captures the essence of the European ethos during this period. The gentlemen, dressed in fashionable hats and suits, engage in animated conversation, while the ladies, adorned in elegant gowns and bonnets, look on. Henri Cordier, a contemporary figure of the time, was an influential figure in both the geographical and linguistic societies of Europe. As an ethnographer and editor, he contributed significantly to the study of various cultures and languages. His presence in this image underscores the intellectual and social significance of the Chalet Cordier as a gathering place for the European elite. The open-air setting of the Chalet Cordier, with its picturesque surroundings, adds to the allure of this image. The use of color in the engraving further enhances its visual appeal, transporting us back to a time when European society was at the height of its bourgeoisie era. This image offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the elegance and sophistication of a bygone era.
