L'Illustration was a weekly French newspaper published in Paris from 1843 to 1944.[1] It was founded by Édouard Charton with the first issue published on 4 March 1843, it became the first illustrated magazine in France then, after 1906, the first in the world, distributed in 150 countries.[2]
History[]
In 1891, L'Illustration became the first French newspaper to publish a photograph. Many of these photographs came from syndicated photo-press agencies like Chusseau-Flaviens, but the publication also employed its own photographers such as Léon Gimpel and others. In 1907, L'Illustration was the first to publish a color photograph. It also published Gaston Leroux' novel Le mystère de la chambre jaune as a serial a year before its 1908 release. La Petite Illustration was the name of the supplement to L'Illustration that published fiction, plays, and other arts-related material.[2]
During the Second World War, while it was owned by the Baschet family, L'Illustration supported Marshal Philippe Pétain's Révolution nationale.[3] However, it turned down pro-German articles by Jacques Bouly de Lesdain.[3] However, Lesdain later became its political editor.[4][5]
The magazine was shut down in 1944 following the Liberation of Paris.[6] Another version re-opened in 1945 under the name France-Illustration, but went bankrupt in 1957.
