Description

Here’s a photo of Philippe Pétain I colourised, but also restored. From now on, I will be repairing each single photo I colour in order to remove all those annoying black dots and the effect of time. Henri Philippe Benoni Omer Joseph Pétain was a very well-known French general. During WWI, his leadership during the Battle of Verdun made him to be considered a hero. During WWII, with the Wehrmacht entering in Paris in June 1940, Pétain was appointed Prime Minister of France and made peace with Germany, moving to the town of Vichy in central France creating an authoritarian and collaborationist regime. After the war, Pétain was tried and convicted for treason. Although he was originally sentenced to death, he spent time in prison until his death, in 1951.

1916
