CEUX QUI BOUDENT L'EXPOSITION [THOSE WHO SHUN THE EXPOSITION].

A chromolithograph, satirical map of Europe on the mostly negative reactions of the European nations against France ,which held the great international exposition in 1889. Also high lighting the then modern 'World Wonder' the Eiffel Tower, which later got the trademark of Paris. From the satirical periodical 'LE TROUPIER' [please view second picture for full sheet].
The Exposition Universelle of 1889 was a world's fair held in Paris, France, from 6 May to 31 October 1889. It was the fourth of eight expositions held in the city between 1855 and 1937. It attracted more than thirty-two million visitors. The most famous structure created for the Exposition, and still remaining, is the Eiffel Tower.
The Exposition was held to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Storming of the Bastille, which marked the beginning of French Revolution, and was also seen as a way to stimulate the economy and pull France out of an economic recession. The Exposition attracted 61,722 official exhibitors, of whom twenty-five thousand were from outside of France.

Because of the theme of the Exposition, celebrating the overthrow of the French monarchy, nearly all European countries with monarchies officially boycotted the Exposition. The boycotting nations were Germany, Austria-Hungary, Belgium, Spain, Great Britain, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal, Russia, and Sweden.
