Summary[edit]

Description
日本語: ノルマントン号事件を風刺したビゴーのスケッチ
English: Georges Ferdinand Bigot, a French artist who dedicated much of his career to Japan, was an early adopter of the idea that the Unequal Treaties levied on Japan should be revised. In this particular work, Bigot satirizes the sinking of a French mail ship that was lost off the coast of Shanghai in 1887 by comparing it with the conduct of the British crew of the Normanton.[1] In the picture, we see Captain Drake astride the lifeboat asking the people drowning in the waves, "How much money do you have on you? Quick! Time is Money!"
Français : Georges Bigot, artiste français ayant consacré la majeure partie de sa carrière au Japon, est l'un des premiers à estimer que les traités inégaux imposés au Japon doivent être révisés. Dans cette illustration, Bigot satirise le naufrage d'un navire postal français au large de Shanghai en 1887 en le comparant avec la conduite de l'équipage britannique du Normanton1. Dans cette image, le capitaine Drake, debout dans un canot de sauvetage, demande aux naufragés : « Combien d'argent avez-vous sur vous ? Vite ! Le temps, c'est de l'argent ! ».
