Laurence Aubain, Russia at the 1889 World Fair.
The participation of Russia in the World Fair which was held in Paris in 1889 foreshadows the rapprochement between France and Russia before the 1891 alliance. Given the fact that it was not formally sponsored by the tsar, the Russian display, therefore deprived of financial support, was not as glamorous as expected. It gives the picture of an everlasting Russia, wrapped in mystery, in spite of its established industrial potentiality. However, it partakes of the vision of the World Fair as a mixture of optimism, industrialism, paternalism, i.e. Saint-Simonism. Eventually there seems to be no discrepancy between what Russia was and what it displayed — that will not be the case as far as the 1900 World Fair is concerned. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
