EDITORS COMMENTS
The caption for the print "J suis y, J y reste (caricature about Jules Ferry and Indochine) - by Martial, in 'The Battle' of 27/10/1884" could be as follows: This intriguing caricature, created by Martial and featured in "The Battle" on October 27th, 1884, captures a significant moment in history. Depicting Jules Ferry and Indochine, it offers a satirical commentary on the relationship between France and its colonial territories. Jules Ferry was a prominent figure during the late nineteenth century who played a crucial role in French politics. Known for his advocacy of colonial expansionism, he became associated with France's involvement in Southeast Asia – particularly Indochina. Martial's artwork cleverly portrays this connection through humor and exaggeration. The title "J suis y, J y reste" which translates to "I am here, I stay here" suggests both determination and perhaps an element of stubbornness. It reflects the mindset of those involved in colonization at that time. Through his artistic skills, Martial highlights the complexities surrounding imperialism while also providing social commentary on French attitudes towards their colonies. This piece serves as a reminder of the power dynamics inherent within colonial relationships during this era. Leonard de Selva has preserved this thought-provoking artwork from Adolphe Martial Potemont called A. P. , ensuring its significance endures into modern times.
