EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in French political history - the reopening of the House of Deputies. The title page, illustrated by Meaulle and Tofani for Le Petit Journal's supplement on June 5th, 1898, showcases three prominent figures: Paul Granier de Cassagnac, Lucien Millevoye, and Paul Deroulede. The image portrays these distinguished gentlemen standing outdoors engaged in an animated discussion. Dressed impeccably in top hats and formal attire, they exude authority and confidence as they deliberate over matters of great importance. A horse-drawn cart nearby adds a touch of old-world charm to the scene. Paul Granier de Cassagnac (1843-1904), known for his influential role in French politics during this era, takes center stage alongside his esteemed counterparts. Lucien Millevoye (1850-1918) and Paul Deroulede (1846-1914) stand beside him with equal gravitas. This visual representation symbolizes the power dynamics within French politics at that time - a fusion of intellect, charisma, and ambition shaping national affairs. It serves as a testament to the significance placed upon parliamentary debates and decision-making processes. Preserved within a private collection today but originally published by Le Petit Journal over a century ago, this historic photograph invites us to reflect upon France's political landscape during the late 19th century. It reminds us that even amidst changing times and evolving ideologies
