As one of the crucial moments of the Iranian Constitutional Revolution, the siege of Tabriz is logically one of the most commented episodes of the period both in Iranian and foreign historiographies. Among these, the French perception of this episode of the late Qajar era is less known than the British and Russian ones, and of course than Iranian sources. This article puts in comparison two testimonies: one from the French Consul in Tabriz, Alphonse Nicolas, and the other one from a French military officer in travel through Central Asia, Fernand Anginieur. Although Nicolas had a great experience of Iran that Anginieur did not have, their visions are quite similar when it comes to close the roots of the revolution in Tabriz. However, because of the gap between their experiences of the region and their own personalities, their writings about Tabriz in 1908–1909 diverge greatly about the appreciation of the events. Nonetheless, the main value of their writings, for us, remains the factual information they gave.

1908 年法国著作中的大不里士起义

作为伊朗宪政革命的关键时刻之一，大不里士围城战理所当然地成为伊朗和外国史学界对该时期评论最多的事件之一。其中，法国人对卡扎尔时代晚期这一事件的看法不如英国人和俄罗斯人知道，当然也不如伊朗消息来源。这篇文章比较了两份证词：一份来自法国驻大不里士领事 Alphonse Nicolas，另一份来自一位在中亚旅行的法国军官 Fernand Anginieur。尽管 Nicolas 对伊朗有着 Anginieur 所没有的丰富经验，但在关闭大不里士革命的根源方面，他们的愿景非常相似。但由于地域经验与自身性格的差距，他们关于 1908 年至 1909 年大不里士的著作在对事件的评价上存在很大分歧。尽管如此，对我们来说，他们著作的主要价值仍然是他们提供的事实信息。
