EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - "The Raising of the French Flag at Timbuktu (Mali)" from Le petit Journal, February 1894. The image showcases the triumphant sight of the French flag proudly flying over Timbuktu, symbolizing the victory and establishment of French colonial rule in Africa. In this engraving by Stefano Bianchetti, we witness a scene filled with both military power and cultural impact. The flag stands tall against the backdrop of an African city, representing France's conquest and control over Mali. It serves as a visual testament to the strength and influence of colonialism during this period. The presence of armed soldiers in the illustration highlights not only their role in securing victory but also signifies their dominance over the local population. This image offers us a glimpse into how European powers sought to expand their territories through invasion and subjugation. As we reflect on this historical moment captured by Le petit Journal, it is important to consider its implications for both France and Africa. This engraving reminds us of the complex dynamics between colonizers and colonized peoples during this era. Overall, this print provides us with a thought-provoking snapshot that encapsulates themes such as power, conquest, cultural exchange, and imperialism within one frame.
