EDITORS COMMENTS
The vibrant print captures the historic moment of the Landing of the Senegalese Troops at the New Wharf in Cotonou, as depicted in Le Petit Journal on May 21st, 1892. Painted by Henri Meyer, this colour lithograph showcases a significant event in Benin's history. Intriguingly detailed, the image portrays a bustling scene at the port with troops unloading barrels from ships while soldiers stand tall and proud in their uniforms. The Senegalese troops are easily identifiable with their distinctive attire and presence. This visual representation highlights not only their arrival but also emphasizes their strength and unity. The composition is further enriched by including West African natives who are seen laboring alongside the troops. Their inclusion serves as a reminder of both cooperation and cultural diversity within this historical context. Meyer's artistic style brings life to every element within the frame - from the busy harbor to each individual figure present. The use of color adds depth and vibrancy to an already captivating scene. This print offers viewers a glimpse into an important moment in time when these brave soldiers arrived at Cotonou's new wharf. It stands as a testament to Benin's rich history and its connection with Senegal during this period.
