This photo print, titled "Illustration in Le Rire, 25 / 04 / 08 - the travel of the colonie minister" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by French illustrator Lucien Metivet in 1908, this engraving provides a glimpse into the world of colonialism and government during that time. The image transports us to Senegal, where we witness the journey of the colonie minister. The scene is filled with amazement and observation as villagers gather around to witness this important event. The traditional architecture and urbanism of Senegal serve as a backdrop for this historical moment. The luggage carried by the minister symbolizes France's influence and presence in Africa during the era of colonialism.
