EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Senegalese tirailleurs on their way to reinforce French troops in Morocco" offers a glimpse into the historical context of colonialism and military operations in the early 20th century. The vivid colours of this lithograph bring to life the scene of Senegalese tirailleurs, African soldiers serving under French command, as they prepare to depart for Casablanca. The image showcases the diversity within France's armed forces during this period, with African soldiers playing a crucial role in supporting French troops abroad. Dressed in their distinctive uniforms and armed with rifles, these brave men stand ready for combat. Their wives accompany them on this journey, highlighting the unique challenges faced by families involved in military campaigns. Published as an illustration for Le Petit Journal on March 22nd, 1908, this artwork captures both the spirit of adventure and the realities of war. It serves as a reminder of France's colonial ambitions and its reliance on troops from its overseas territories. Through this powerful visual representation, we are transported back in time to witness an important chapter in history. This photograph print not only celebrates the bravery and sacrifice of these Senegalese tirailleurs but also prompts us to reflect upon complex themes such as imperialism, cultural exchange, and identity within a global context.
