Le Tour du monde was dreamed up in 1860 by L. Hachette and E. Charton as a way to popularize geography. Images played a key role in it, both as evidence that a voyage took place and as pedagogical tools. The journal’s success encourages us to consider the publishing process behind it and the origins of the stories it contained.
