EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of rebellion aboard the building Ville de Saint Nazaire, a ship that embarked from the Ile d'aix towards Guiana in 1894. On board were 130 forcats (convicts) and 170 relegues (exiles), among them numerous renowned anarchists such as Leautier, Marpeaux, Catineau, and Colombat. The image is an engraving featured in "Le petit journal" on September 10th, 1894, part of the Selvas collection. The scene depicted showcases the intensity and chaos of this revolt at sea. The unknown artist skillfully portrays the tension and defiance within these prisoners as they challenge their captors. This historical moment serves as a testament to the resilience and determination of those who fought against oppressive systems. The print offers a glimpse into an era when French anarchism was gaining momentum and making headlines across Europe. It also sheds light on the harsh realities faced by convicts being transported to Guyana during this time period. Leonard de Selva's preservation of this engraving allows us to reflect upon significant events that have shaped our history. As we observe this powerful image today, it reminds us of past struggles for freedom and justice while serving as a reminder that resistance can take many forms throughout history.
