COLLECTION OF THE LATE FRENCH DIPLOMAT GEORGES DUBAIL (1845-1932) (LOT 71-85)Georges Dubail (1845-1932) went to China for the first time in 1876. He spent two years working for the Minister Plenipotentiary in Beijing before coming back to France, where he was an employee of the Orient and Indochina Sub-Directorate. In 1893, he was once again mobilized at the Consulate in Shanghai, then in 1897 he took the direction of the Legation in Beijing with the mission of supervising the works of the railway line Longzhou-Nanning and Beijing-Hankou. In 1898, he travels across the world to South America then back to Asia in Tokyo then Pekin in 1902. Dubail finished his diplomatic career in Beijing as Minister Plenipotentiary. He came back to France in 1906 bringing along Chinese and Japanese works of art he had always lived with and which stayed in the family until today. During his career, Dubail was also committed to strengthen relationships between France and China and thus took part in the creation of the Franco-Chinese Friendship Association (Association Amicale franco-chinoise) in 1907 in Paris, which welcomed Chinese students such as Deng Xiaoping or Nie Rongzhen who then became Chinese communist party leaders.
