Adolphe-Eugène Disdéri, Mandarins who participated in the peace treaty

Hue (Annam) April 16, 1863,

Albumen print, 24 x 28 cm.

A photograph of Disdéri (catalog No. 104, albumen print, 24 x 28 cm, Disderi stamp on the carton, estimate € 1000/1200)  It represents a group portrait, “Mandarins who participated in the peace treaty in Hue (Annam) April 16, 1863,” the delegation is sent to Saigon by Emperor Tu Duc to negotiate the peace treaty of 1862.

By the treaty signed June 5, 1862 and ratified on 16 April 1863 Hue, Vietnam cedes to France the three eastern provinces (Gia Dinh, Bien Hoa and My Tho) and the islands of Con Dao (Pulo Condor) opens three ports (including Da Nang) to trade between France and Spain, will pay a war indemnity of four million dollars and finally tolerate the freedom of Christian worship. The two principal ambassadors were then Phan Thanh Gian Lam Duy and Tiep. We know that during their stay in Saigon, Vice-Admiral Bonard had been photographed and the photographs had been the model for the engravings published in L’Illustration of November 29, 1862 bearing the words “from the photographs provided by M. Rigault, corresponding Vice-Admiral Bonard. “

Detail. Signatures of ambassadors

Disdéri of photography.

Three inscriptions in Chinese characters found on the carton assembly, between photography and Disderi stamp, bearing the names of three ambassadors:

Center: 正 使 潘清 简 Phan Thanh Gian chanh knew, “the first ambassador, HE Phan Thanh Gian (1796-1867)”

Right: 副使 笵 富庶 Pho Phu Pham Thu knew “Vice-Ambassador Pham Phu Thu”

Left: 陪 使 魏克 袒 boi knew Nguỵ Khac Djan, “Deputy Ambassador Nguy Khac Dan.”

Thus, it is not coming from the embassy in Saigon negotiate the Treaty of 1862 (ratified in Hue in April 1863), but the embassy that was from the Emperor Tu Duc in July 1863, under the pretext of thanking the gifts sent by Napoleon III, to negotiate the purchase of the three eastern provinces.

The delegation left Saigon on July 4, 1863 a French warship to reach Suez August 17th where she embarked on the Labrador to win Toulon on September 10. She arrived in Paris on September 13 and was received by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, M. Feuillet de Conches on the 18th September, on behalf of the emperor who was on holiday in Biarritz.

At the request of the Emperor Napoleon III, Jacques-Philippe Potteau (1807-1876), who was the successor of Louis Rousseau at the Natural History Museum and devoted himself to scientific and ethnographic photography, was designated to capture the photographic portrait the ambassador and his entourage. At the first meeting (September 20, 1863), he made two portraits of Ambassador Phan Thanh Gian, one sitting, the other foot (currently kept at the Laboratory of Anthropology of the Museum of Natural History in Paris, No. 10,608 and No. 10,610), one of Pham Phu Thu, one of Nguy Khac Dan and a group. These portraits were presented at the meeting of December 15, 1863.

In the Journal of the embassy, ​​Pham Phu Thu noted:

“At ngo (noon), the sky became a little calm. Dressed in the costume of the court, one by one we went to the floor of the hotel which is covered with glass, and we shoot we did. Here is the essence of photography: first we take a glass plate covered with a combination of liquids: it is placed behind a glass tube, before which stands the person who looks inside of the opposite tube, under the action of sunlight coming through the tube, the glass plate receives the impression of an image, there is not even a hair of difference. The Europeans used to do this operation with great desire. All those with whom we just want to know talk to you a portrait of the upper and lower are all the same, saying they see is the testimony of a memory reciprocal.

In the following, under the conduct of the staff, photographers often came with their camera to the hotel and invited us to shoot us, they gave us each a copy of these portraits. After the draw, each of the small amounts to a huge portraits, price of labor, those who are slightly larger cost 4 or 5 francs “(Pham Phu Thu, (trans. Tran Xuan Toan),” The Embassy of Phan Than Gian (1863-1864) “BAVH, 1921, p. 156.)

Thus, after Jacques-Philippe Potteau, Adolphe-Eugène Disdéri (1819-1889) was one of the photographers who were invited to capture the features of the Ambassador and the delegation. The photograph will be on sale May 7, 2011 Chartres was performed on this occasion.

In 1854, Disdéri invented a new camera which lets you play six shots on the same glass plate and patented the format of the card whose paternity of the invention is to be attributed either to Marseille Dodero Aguado. The fashion for portraits-cost cards spread rapidly in France.

In the Journal of the Embassy, ​​Pham Phu Thu noted that: “The 20th Day (1 November 1863) it rained. At vi (from 1 to 3 pm), Mr. Cam-ba-xa-the GIO, French Minister of Rites [Author’s note: This is the Grand Master of Ceremonies], we did bring in an official letter which stated that “At vi (from 1 to 3 pm) the 24th day, he would take us, and in the middle of the same vi hours, we came to the Royal Court of France. “Soon after, Mr. Ha-ba-ly [Author’s note: this is Mr. Aubaret, Commander, Officer of Foreign Affairs, who served as interpreter during the stay of the mission in France.] Brought us three cards and said that the Minister of Rites did convey his compliments to the three of us. At nightfall, he returned and took us three cards in response to the compliments of the Minister “(Pham Phu Thu (trans. Tran Xuan Toan),” The Embassy of Phan Thanh Gian, 1863-1864, “Bulletin Friends of Old Hue, 1921, No. 1-4, pp. 266-267).

In October 2007, a document dated 01st November 1863, was sold on ebay. This is a certificate signed by the hand of Phan Thanh Gian confirming the receipt of a letter from the Grand Master of Ceremonies of the Emperor.

By comparing this signature with that appearing in the photograph of Disdéri, it is undeniable that this is the manual signature of Phan Thanh Gian. This photograph had to be carried out between November and December 1863.

The reception of the ambassadors of Annam was held November 7 at a public hearing at the Palais des Tuileries, after the return of the Empress Eugenie of Spain, where she was visiting her family. The emperor was not opposed to negotiations. He relied on the payment of 85 million promised by the king of Annam to offset the deficit of 972 million francs. After the reception, the negotiations began, and November 12, Le Moniteur Universal announced that the peace treaty of June 5, 1862 would be amended. Once his mission is completed, Phan Thanh Gian left France carrying with him his photographic portraits by Jacques-Philippe Potteau (01st November 1863) and Adolphe Eugene Disdéri (November-December 1863) and by other photographers.

Restoration of the oldest communal house of Vietnam in Ha Tay
The province of Ha Tay (North) has recently begun the restoration of the oldest town hall in the country. Built in the 16th century, Thuy Communal House Phieu, in the town of Thuy An, Ba Vi district, will be renewed for one year. Cost: $ 7 billion VND. The town hall is dedicated to the worship of Tan Vien, one of the most powerful four geniuses of Vietnamese mythology. (CVN) Cathedral of Phat Diem or what acculturation?

The Cathedral of Phat Diem, Ninh Binh province (North), 121 km south of Hanoi, was at the time of French colonization a center of Catholicism in the North. But even more, this is one of the earliest architectural examples of acculturation that took place during this period.
A few weeks ago now, Alain J. Lemaitre, PhD in anthropology, history and literature, lecturer in Modern History at the University of Haute Alsace, gave the occasion of International Day of Francophonie conference on acculturation. This term was born in the field of ethnology describes “all the phenomena resulting from continuous contact between two different cultural groups causing changes in the 2 groups.”

In the colonial perspective, these phenomena were seen as unidirectional as the dominant idea was that of supremacy of European culture. Thus, only the indigenous culture change is in contact with the culture of the colonizers, merely reproduced as is the customs of the latter. However, following decolonization and independence of peoples, ethnology has adjusted this concept by incorporating the idea of ​​two-dimensionality cultural exchange, an idea that is now consensus within the scientific community. In a continuous contact between two groups, there is not only integration of a new culture but also maintaining the original culture that produces an impact on how acculturation and is its outcome.

The situation in Asia at the time of colonization was more specific. Indeed, while Europe meets the ancient civilizations who know the writing (even longer for it) and, therefore, have a written memory. This was a major difference with, for example, the civilizations of South America. Predominantly oral culture, they showed much less resistant to contact with another culture, and this especially since it was imposed by force. Thus, if some countries in South America such as Peru, part of Mexico and Guatemala, retain strong traits of their original culture, most of the other present only very few indigenous elements as is the case for example in Chile. Another difference is so special to Asia at this time lies in the way contacts between cultures were performed. Colonies in Asia were not settlements. Europeans proceeded through the establishment of trading posts that left side of the vast territories and large populations. Contact with Western culture and were indirect and allowed greater flexibility to the natives, could more freely assimilate the elements of the dominant culture.

During the French colonization in Vietnam, there was actually acculturation. However, this has not only led to the integration of European culture but also, fortunately, the maintenance of indigenous culture. The architecture of the Cathedral of Phat Diem is one of the first manifestations of this cultural phenomenon.

An architectural example of acculturation
Mecca of Catholicism in the North at the time of French colonization, the country’s division in 1954 led to the departure en masse to the south of Catholics and the closure of the sanctuary. This is called “Cathedral of Phat Diem” actually consists of many buildings whose construction was completed in 1891. The ensemble was founded by a Vietnamese priest named Six, whose tomb is on the front of the cathedral, the main building. All around stand several kinds of chapels, each dedicated to a saint. However, if visiting this place of Catholic worship, you expect to find the towers that are characteristic of these buildings, you will leave disappointed. All stone, curved roofs similar to those of a pagoda, the architecture of this place is largely based on the Buddhist temples. The mixture of two cultures is undeniable here.

The priest saw to Six represent the main elements of the Vietnamese village, including the town hall, the pond and the tree while a bell feeder, which is indispensable to any place of Catholic worship stands at the back of the cathedral. However, the first floor of this tower, there is a large size drum, an instrument used to strike the hour in the Buddhist religion. On the second floor hangs a bell, however, forged on the model oriental. It has 4 contact points to sound the hours, one per season. Each is identified by a sinogram while a song of prayer is inscribed on it in Latin. Four small towers stand at each corner of the building, each surmounted by a representation of a saint. However, while they traditionally represented standing here, they sit in the way of the Buddha.

Leaving the cathedral to enter one of the many chapels surrounding it. The traces of the influence of European culture mingling with the Sino-Vietnamese remain. At the back of the chapel stands a stone altar surmounted by a statue of the Virgin Mary. The bas-reliefs on the front of this altar are the Western symbols of purity: a garden and a well closed. The side faces in turn, are engraved with lotus flowers, representing the same idea of ​​purity in the oriental imagination.

The importance of cultural policy
The Sino-Vietnamese architecture of European inspiration of this building is one of many examples of the impact of European culture on Vietnamese culture during colonization. It shows however, that in the case of Vietnam, the indigenous culture was not destroyed but kept. This is due in large part by its tradition of written culture, which has forged a strong collective identity, that is to say a set of characters that unite men and women of the same group but the also differ from other groups.

Thus, whatever the force of acculturation on an economic and even social, that there is a written culture to forge a strong collective identity, allows an exchange between cultures (incidentally still unequal exchange) and a non-destruction thereof. However, today, perhaps more than ever, culture is intimately linked to the economic field, especially facilitating the destruction of cultural systems.

Hence the need for each country to defend it by a cultural policy that can meet the challenges of globalization. This is the objective of the Convention for the Protection and Promotion of Cultural Diversity, established by UNESCO in October 2005. The importance of the issues raised by this treaty is widely recognized internationally as since then it has been signed and ratified by 56 countries and the European Union (regional as a unit). The fact that the United States, including the cultural sector plays a major role in the U.S. economy, is opposed to its adoption in the vote to UNESCO, only confirms this idea. (Anaïs Chavanne / CVN

26.  1926

Emperor Bo dai Ascended The throne

Emperor Bao Dai

Born Prince Nguyen Vinh Thuy on Oct. 22, 1913, he was given the imperial name Bao Dai (which is pronounced bah-oh dye and means or “Protector of Grandeur” or “Keeper of Greatness” “Preserver of Greatness”) on his succession as Emperor in 1926. Boa Dai ascended the throne in 1925 at the age of 12 on the death of his father, Emperor Khai Dinh, but did not return to Viet Nam until 1932 after he had completed his education in France. He returned home to the imperial city of Hue in 1932, assuming the ceremonial duties of the 13th Emperor of the Nguyen dynasty.

Some Vietnamese attempted to advance the cause of national liberation through reforms from above. They looked to the young Emperor Boa Dai as their best hope. Bao Dai was greeted with enthusiasm by the Vietnamese, who expected that he would be able to persuade the French to install a more liberal regime. Boa Dai attempted to reign as a constitutional monarch, according to the terms oithe treaty of 1884 establishing the protectorate, and he strove to modernizethe ancient imperial administration at Hue. Among his young collaborators was Ngo Dinh Diem, governor of the Phan Thietarea in Binh Thuan Province, who was given the portfolio of minister of the interior and appointed head of the secretariat of a Vietnemese-French commission which was charged with the responsibility of implementing Bao Dai’s reform proposals. When it became obvious that the French had no intention of granting real power to the Vietnamese administration and would make noconcessions toward unification of the country, the youthful emperor appeared to lose interest, and Ngo Dinh Diem resigned his official position.

The Japanese coup of 09 March 1945 caught the Viet Minh by surprise. But if the Japanese thought the removal of the French would win over the Viet Minh, they were soon disabused of that notion. The Viet Minh publicly objected to the Japanese coup, seeing it as a substitution of one colonial master for another. The Japanese viewed the Viet Minh dissatisfaction as sour grapes at being left out of the action. The investiture of Bao Dai in Hue and the cabinet under Pham Quynh was greeted by opposition, public meetings, and demonstrations in Hanoi organized partly by the Viet Minh. So serious was this opposition that Bao Dai dissolved his cabinet on 19 March 1945 and installed a new one under Tran Trong Kim, an academic of modest nationalist tendencies with no stomach for thesnakepit of Indochinese politics.

Within two days of the Japanese acceptance of the Potsdam declaration, the Viet Minh began to take power in the cities of Indochina. In Hanoi, a Political Action Committee was formed to facilitate cooperationwith Bao Dai’s government.” By 23 August 1945, Hue was solidly Viet Minh, as was Saigon, where the Executive Committee of the South Vietnam Republic was established. The Viet Minh seized the government buildings in Hanoi on the 19th.

Bao Dai, apparently convinced that a united and independent nation offered the only possibility of preventing the return of French control, decided to abdicate. Recogniting only the nationalist character of the Viet Minh movement and assuming that it had Allied support, he abdicated. in its favor on August 25, 1945 ; and handed over his imperial seal and others ymbols of office to representatives of the newly proclaimed Provisional Government of the Republic of Vietnam.

Pleas by Ho Chi Minh and Emperor Bao Dai to Truman, Charles De Gaulle, Stalin, and British prime minister Atlee to forestall the French return went unanswered. French forces were permitted to land in the North. Bao Dai, who had been acting as high counselor to Ho Chi Minh, was sent on a “good will” mission to China where he remained in exile, thus eliminating the possibility that he might provide a rallying point for groups not thoroughly aligned with the Viet Minh.

Negotiations with France continued for two years, but by June 1949 France finally approved of limited independence for “the State of Vietnam” within the French Union. Bao Dai was coaxed home by the French, who saw him as a possible alterative to Ho Chi Minh, whose guerrillas were then at war with the French colonial army. In February 1950, Great Britain and the United States recognized the State of Vietnam headed by the ex-emperor Bao Dai as the legitimate government. France concluded agreements with Laos and Cambodia simiiar to that with Viet Nam, the three countries became the Associate States of Indochina and were accorded diplomatic recognition by more than 30 other nations.

Bao Dai assumed the role of chief of state, and returned to Vietnam with the titles of Premier and — again — Emperor. In its efforts to win popular support, the Bao Dai regime was unsuccesstul. Bao Dai left major decisions to his French-backed advisers, preferring to spend time with his many mistresses at his hunting lodge in the highlands of central Vietnam. His administration was marked by the institutionalization of corruption, prostitution, smuggling, racketeering, and drug trafficking through his association with the Binh Xuyen gang in Saigon.

The principal nationlists (including Ngo Dinh Diem) failed to unite behind him, since they claimed that the French did not offer real independence. Confronted with a choice between French colonialism and the Communist-led nationalist movement, many Vietnamese, attracted by its appeal for independence and unity, tended to side with the Viet Minh organization. In the meantime; Ho Chi Minh rid his coalition government of the moderates and nationalists whom he had accepted earlier and showed himself to be completely Communist. In March 1951 the Indochinese Communists Party (dissolved in 1945) was revived as the Workers Party (Dang Lao Dong).

Cessation of the Indochina War in 1954 left the Associated States of Indochina divided into four countries: Cambodia, Laos, North Viet Nam and South Viet Nam. The Chief of State, Bao Dai, called on Ngo Dinh Diem, to form a government, but although in office, he lacked control, especially over the army. After a time, Diem brought the army under control. Diem turned his attention to his own status and called for a referendum to al1ow Vietnamese to choose between Diem and Emperor Bao Dai. A referendum was ordered for October 23, 1955. Diem’s bid to replace Bao Dai was successful. Official Vietnamese government records showed that 91.8 percent of the voting population participated and that 98.2 percent of the voters chose to replace Bao Dai with Diem.

Bao Dai played almost no role in his homeland thereafter, choosing instead a life in Paris and along the Riviera that centered around golf, bridge tournaments and women. Bao Dai, the last Emperor in a line that held the throne in Vietnam for a century and a half, died on August 2, 1997 in France,

For these second catagory of notes, on their back side there were lines of Chinese Characters and a legal warning (in French) which have been all writen nratly and lightly. The note values have been written clearly in three letters of chinese,Vietnamese and Cambodian.
The following five-piaster notes were called very popularly by our compatriots as “Con Cong ”(Peacock) papers. On the back side of the twenty piaster notes there was the four-faces statue found at bayon temple (Cambodia). They were called populary as “Giay Qanh”( “Vingt Papers) which come from the french number “Vingt”(twenty).
For one hundred-piaster note, there was rather special thing. The Vietnamese figures (The single vase,The Imperial Temple Gate of Hue,capital city) were shown on the front side, while on their back side was seen the bust of Joseph-Francois Dupleix, a well-kown french colonialist official.
