Voyage de Paris dans l’Amérique du Sud

A single-issue comic published by Aubert in 1845, Voyage de Paris dans l’Amérique du Sud is a satirical travelogue illustrated by the celebrated caricaturist Amédée de Noé, better known as Cham. This early work captures Cham’s distinctive, witty style as he imagines a journey from Paris to South America, offering a humorous glimpse into mid-19th century French perspectives on exploration and foreign lands. It stands as a charming artifact of the era’s comic art, showcasing Cham’s talent before his later fame in French periodicals.
