EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historical moment in French colonial history. Taken from an engraving published in "Le Petit Parisien" on December 15,1901, the image showcases the French Armee's Saphis horse shooting exercises in Algeria. The photograph was created by Andrieux, Clement Auguste (1829-1910) and Carrey (fl. 1900), and it is now part of a private collection owned by Stefano Bianchetti. The scene depicts a group of Algerian soldiers, known as Saphis, engaged in military training on horseback. These brave men were part of the French armed forces stationed in North Africa during the early twentieth century. Their presence symbolizes France's colonial expansion into Algeria and its influence over Arab civilization. The composition exudes both power and elegance as these skilled riders demonstrate their marksmanship while mounted on their horses. The intricate details captured by the engraving highlight not only the soldiers' uniforms but also the landscapes of Algeria - a land rich with history and cultural diversity. This print serves as a reminder of France's imperial past and its impact on countries like Algeria within Central Africa. It offers viewers an opportunity to reflect upon this significant period in history when colonialism shaped nations across Africa.
