EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures General Alfred Amedee Dodds during his time in Dahomey, as depicted in the renowned publication Le Petit Journal. Taken on December 3rd, 1892, this colour lithograph by Henri Meyer showcases the distinguished French soldier and colonialist in all his glory. General Dodds played a significant role in the colonization of Senegal and Benin, leaving an indelible mark on West Africa's history. In this portrait, he stands tall and proud, donning his military uniform with utmost elegance. His pith helmet adds a touch of exoticism to the image while symbolizing his authority and command. With a three-quarter length pose, General Dodds exudes confidence and determination. His well-groomed moustache further enhances his authoritative presence. The vibrant colours used in this lithograph bring life to the scene, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the ambiance of that era. This remarkable piece serves as both a historical document and an artistic masterpiece. It offers us a glimpse into an important chapter of European colonial expansion while highlighting General Dodds' pivotal role within it. As we admire this photograph print today, let us reflect upon its significance and remember those who shaped our world through their actions and endeavors.
