Commentary


Le palais du Trocadéro était une construction de la seconde moitié du XIXe siècle de tendance éclectique, d'inspirations mauresque et néo-byzantine situé dans le 16e arrondissement de Paris, sur la colline de Chaillot, entre la place du Trocadéro et les jardins du même nom. Il était composé d'une salle de spectacle de 4 600 places prolongée de chaque côté par deux ailes courbées, accueillant chacune un musée (le musée des Monuments français et le musée d'ethnographie) et des salles de conférences.
Construit à l'occasion de l'exposition universelle de 1878, il n'était pas destiné à survivre à l'événement ; si le bâtiment est finalement conservé pendant une soixantaine d'années, il est l'objet de nombreuses critiques concernant son style architectural, son progressif délabrement et la mauvaise acoustique de la grande salle, rapidement désertée par les orchestres. Il est démantelé en 1935 pour l'exposition spécialisée de 1937, afin de laisser la place à une nouvelle construction, le palais de Chaillot.

Eugène-André Oudiné, né à Paris le 1er janvier 1810, mort à Paris le 12 avril 1887, est un sculpteur, graveur et médailleur français. Eugène-André Oudiné a été l'élève de André Galle (1761 - 1844), de Louis Petitot (1794 - 1862) et de Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres (1780 - 1867). Il reçoit le premier grand prix de Rome de gravure en médailles en 18311. Il est l'auteur de plusieurs monnaies dont la pièce de 5 francs 1849 et 1850 en argent à la tête de Cérès de la Seconde République qui remplace l'écu au type Dupré de 1848. De 1837 à 1887 il fut le graveur officiel du Ministère des Finances. Il a également dessiné et gravé les timbres-télégraphe ainsi que les timbres pour journaux émis en 1868. Ses créations concernent également les timbres fiscaux : " Aigle de face " des timbres de dimension, " Aigle de trois-quart " des articles d'argent et des récépissés de chemins de fer, type " Chiffres " des timbres d'affiches, de connaissements, de copies, de quittances et type " Groupe allégorique " qui va servir pour les timbres fiscaux d'effets de commerce entre 1874 et 1885.

The Trocadéro Palace was a building from the second half of the 19th century of eclectic tendency, of Moorish and neo-Byzantine inspirations located in the 16th arrondissement of Paris, on the Chaillot hill, between the Place du Trocadéro and the gardens of the same name.. It consisted of a 4,600-seat performance hall extended on each side by two curved wings, each housing a museum (the Museum of French Monuments and the Museum of Ethnography) and conference rooms..
Built for the 1878 World's Fair, it was not intended to survive the event; although the building was ultimately preserved for around sixty years, it was the subject of much criticism regarding its architectural style, its gradual decay and the poor acoustics of the main hall, which was quickly deserted by orchestras.. It was dismantled in 1935 for the 1937 special exhibition, to make way for a new building, the Palais de Chaillot..

Historical background


III REPUBLIC

(4/09/1870-10/07/1940)

The news of the capitulation of Sedan provokes the revolution of September 4, 1870 in Paris. Proclaimed at the Hôtel de Ville, the Republic is endowed with a provisional government called the Government of National Defense. Threatened on the left by the insurrection of the Commune and on the right by the monarchists, the new regime had a difficult start.. Initially head of the executive power (February 1871), Thiers was responsible for reorganizing the country before choosing its form of government.. He became President of the Republic in August 1871 and, despite his action to liberate the territory, had to leave his post in March 1873 in the face of royalist opposition.. He is then replaced by Mac-Mahon favorable to the restoration of the monarchy but this one is not restored following the question of the flag. The law of the septennat was then put in place in November 1873 and then, in 1875, the fundamental laws were passed which served as the Constitution of the Third Republic.. Parliamentary system, it is characterized in particular by the clear preponderance of the legislative power on the executive power. Anticlerical, the Third Republic makes school free, secular and compulsory but continues the colonial policy for its economic, strategic and moral ambitions. Separation of Church and State was passed in 1905.. The idea of revenge on Germany and significant nationalism are at the heart of the Boulangist crisis, the Panama scandal or the Dreyfus affair of the years 1886-1899, while foreign policy is very active, particularly in Morocco and that the arms race develops. The First World War was expensive for France, which only recovered from 1920 or even 1928 for the coin with the "Poincaré" franc.. The crisis of 1929 is felt only from 1932 but lasts until 1939, a period during which ministerial instability is very important. Wavering in 1934, the Third Republic found a new unitary cement with anti-fascism which enabled the Popular Front to come to power in 1936.. But, paralyzed against Germany, France was then bogged down in a "phony war" and then suffered one of the greatest defeats in its history in June 1940.. Gathered in the National Assembly in Vichy on July 10, 1940, the Chambers, although elected in 1936, voted full powers to Pétain in a sort of collective suicide by 569 votes for, 80 votes against and 18 abstentions..
