EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of "The National Colonial Exhibition" held in Marseille from April to November 1916. Painted by David Dellepiane in 1922, this oil on canvas artwork showcases a vibrant display of cultural diversity and colonial influence. In this scene, elephants take center stage, symbolizing the majestic presence of Africa and Thailand within the colonies. The exhibition serves as a melting pot for various traditions and costumes, with individuals dressed in traditional attire representing Indian and Arab cultures. Their colorful garments add an extra layer of vibrancy to the already bustling atmosphere. The painting not only highlights the beauty of these different cultures but also sheds light on France's international reach during its colonial era.
