EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The French in Algeria, Attack by the Kabyles on the Camp of the Chasseurs-a-Pied" offers a glimpse into a dramatic moment during France's colonial presence in North Africa. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases a significant event that occurred during this turbulent period. In this scene, we witness an intense assault on the camp of the Chasseurs-a-Pied by Kabyle warriors. The composition is filled with action and tension as soldiers defend their position against their determined attackers. The detailed topography of Algeria adds to the authenticity and atmosphere of the artwork. This engraving was originally published as an illustration for The Illustrated Times on January 3rd, 1857. It served as a news item highlighting France's military engagements in Algeria at that time. The image sheds light on not only historical events but also provides insights into Arab civilization and culture within Sudan and other regions of North Africa. It serves as a reminder of France's influence over its overseas territories during this era. Preserved within private collections today, this powerful artwork continues to captivate viewers with its portrayal of conflict and exploration between two distinct cultures - French colonizers and Algerian natives.
