Description

Wilson inscribes a portrait to French WWI leader Clémenceau

Captivating vintage matte-finish 8.25 x 12.25 Harris & Ewing portrait, signed and inscribed in fountain pen, "To M. Clémenceau, With the best wishes, of Woodrow Wilson.” In very good condition, with a few light creases, some light soiling, silvering to some of the darker areas of the image, a tear to the top edge, and scattered ink spots towards the top right corner. Wilson inscribed to Georges Benjamin Clemenceau, prime minister of France from 1906–1909 and 1917–1920 who served as France’s Allie leader during the final year of WWI. Nicknamed ‘Le Tigre,’ Clemenceau was an integral voice, along with Wilson, in creating the Treaty of Versailles at the Paris Peace Conference. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
