Les colonies françaises;
Les colonies françaises is an 1889 French illustrated survey of the empire's overseas territories, published in Paris by Quantin and tied to the Exposition coloniale of that year, written by Louis Henrique for a general reading public. Its pictures are fine pen-and-ink sketches of colonial village huts, stilted houses, tree-lined roads and a seated family, offering a designer period engraving textures and tropical settlement scenes.
