Le jour de gloire - General Mangin Passes Under the Arc de Triomphe and Salutes with His Sword, 1919
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a powerful and iconic image captured by the renowned French photographer Charles-Jules Duvent. This photograph, published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration in Paris in 1924, captures the moment of triumph and celebration as General Charles Emmanuel Marie Mangin, Commander of the French Colonial Army, rides his horse under the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. The Arc de Triomphe, a symbol of French military might and national pride, stands tall and grand on the Avenue des Champs-Élysées. The general, dressed in his military uniform and wearing a helmet, leads his troops in a procession, marking the end of the First World War and the beginning of the postwar era. The image is a testament to the bravery and resilience of the French military and the people, who had endured years of hardship and loss during the war. The general, with a determined look on his face, salutes the crowd with his sword held high, an act of honor and respect. The image is filled with a sense of pride and joy, as the soldiers and civilians cheer and wave flags. The horses, too, seem to share in the excitement, their ears pricked and eyes bright. The photograph is a stunning example of the power of visual storytelling, capturing a moment in history that continues to resonate with audiences today. It is a reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War and the importance of celebrating the victories and achievements of the armed forces. The image is a beautiful blend of history, art, and emotion, and a testament to the enduring spirit of the human spirit.
