EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable portrait of Victor Guy, Baron Duperre, painted by Joseph Desire Court in 1832. The oil on canvas masterpiece measures an impressive 214 x 140 cm and is currently housed at the Château de Versailles in France. Victor Guy (1775-1846) was not only a distinguished admiral but also served as Minister of the Marine from 1834 to 1843. This particular painting depicts him in his role as Commander of the French Fleet during the pivotal French occupation of Algiers in 1830. Donning a resplendent brocade uniform, he exudes authority and strength. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, capturing both the essence of Victor Guy's character and his significant contribution to colonial history. It is worth noting that there exists a strikingly similar portrait by Eugene Carpentier at Cherbourg, which suggests that this artwork may be a copy or replica. As we delve into this historical image, it serves as a powerful reminder of Algeria's past - its invasion and colonization by France during this period. Beyond its historical significance lies an exploration into naval power and influence within North Africa's Maghreb region.
