The artist: Germain Ribot (1845-1893), born Clément Théodule Ribot.
Son and student of the famous self-taught artist Théodule Ribot (1823-1891) whose works are present in the collections of the Caen Museum of Fine Arts and who were the subject of a beautiful exhibition in 2022 “Théodule Ribot ( 1823-1891), A delicious darkness".
Germain Ribot adopted the dark and contrasting manner of his father but subsequently brought a more colorful personal touch to his flower paintings. He exhibited in Paris and participated in the Salon des Artistes Français from 1870 until 1883.
The Dreyfus affair
It was a state affair that became a major social and political conflict in France during the Third Republic at the end of the 19th century. This case concerns the accusation of treason made to Captain Alfred Dreyfus, a Jew of Alsatian origin, who was ultimately exonerated. It shook French society for twelve years, from 1894 to 1906, dividing it deeply and lastingly into two opposing camps: the "Dreyfusards", supporters of Dreyfus's innocence, and the "anti-Dreyfusards", supporters of his guilt.
