The Invaders of the Johnson County War of Wyoming, 1892
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph that takes us back to a tumultuous chapter in American history. This powerful image captures a group portrait of the infamous antagonists known as "The Invaders" who were at the center of the Johnson County War. In this hauntingly beautiful print, we see a band of rugged men standing together, their faces weathered by years on the range. These individuals were part of an organized posse hired by the Wyoming Stock Growers Association to exterminate supposed rustlers – smaller ranchers falsely accused of cattle theft. Led by Frank Wolcott and armed with corrupt intentions, these gunmen became known as Regulators. The photo speaks volumes about the lawlessness and violence that plagued Wyoming during this time. It serves as a chilling reminder of how power can be abused when placed in the wrong hands. Despite their criminal actions, many members of The Invaders were released without charge due to their connections within society. This image transports us back to an era where justice was often elusive and survival meant taking matters into one's own hands. It sheds light on a dark period in North American history when greed and monopoly drove men to commit unspeakable acts against their fellow ranchers. "The Invaders" serves as both a historical document and an artistic masterpiece, capturing not only faces but also emotions etched deep within each individual's soul. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded that even amidst chaos
