EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable cartoon by Charles Floquet, a prominent lawyer and president of the Council from 1888 to 1889. The artwork, originally featured in "The Men of Today" by Gill Andre, captures Floquet's fierce determination as he engages in combat with General Boulanger. Floquet's duel with General Boulanger holds significant historical importance as it symbolizes his unwavering opposition to the latter's ideas. In this drawing, created by Gill himself, we witness the intensity of their clash and the resolute spirit that defined Floquet's character. The artist skillfully portrays Floquet through intricate details and masterful strokes. His facial expression exudes confidence and strength while his posture reflects a sense of purposeful aggression. This portrayal perfectly encapsulates Floquet's commitment to defending his beliefs against those who sought to challenge them. Leonard de Selva has expertly captured this engraving on film, preserving its essence for future generations to appreciate. Through this photograph, viewers can delve into an era marked by political turmoil and ideological battles. As we admire this stunning work of art, let us reflect on Charles Floquet's legacy as both a skilled lawyer and an influential figure in French politics during the late 19th century.
