Commentary
Cette large médaille d’or fut remise par le CNRS (Centre Nationale de la Recherche Scientifique) au géographe et alpiniste Raoul Blanchard (1877-1965). Intéressé par la géographie grâce à l’enseignement de Paul Vidal de La Blache, il deviendra professeur de géographie et soutiendra une thèse de géographie régionale sur la Flandre. Professeur à l’Université de Grenoble, il fondera un centre d’étude sur les Alpes françaises, l’Institut de géographie alpine. Nommé professeur de géographie à l’Université d’Harvard, il s’intéressera au Canada et ira à de nombreuses reprises au Québec. Il y est considéré comme le père de la géographie moderne.
