EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Le nouveau ministre des Travaux publics, des Transports et du Ravitaillement, M. Herriot" (The new Minister of Public Works, Transport and Supply, M. Herriot), was captured by renowned French photographer Jean Clair-Guyot in 1916. The image is a portrait of Edouard Herriot, who served as the Minister of Public Works, Transport and Supply during the Third Republic in France, during the First World War. Herriot is depicted seated at a desk in his office, surrounded by the trappings of his position. The room is filled with the furniture and decor typical of the time, including a heavy wooden desk, a map on the wall, and a large, ornate clock. Herriot himself is dressed in formal attire, his serious expression conveying the weight of responsibility that comes with his role in wartime France. The photograph is part of the "Collection de la Guerre IV. L'Illustration Tome CXLVIII. La Guerre Juillet, Aout, Septembre, Octobre, Novembre, Decembre 1916" (Collection of the War IV. The Illustration Volume CXLVIII. The War July, August, September, October, November, December 1916), and provides a glimpse into the daily life of a high-ranking political figure during a time of great upheaval and change. Herriot's tenure as Minister of Public Works, Transport and Supply was marked by his efforts to ensure the continued functioning of France's infrastructure and supply lines during the war. His work was crucial in keeping the country's economy running and its people supplied, making this photograph a significant historical document as well as a striking work of art.
