EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a powerful moment in history. In the image, we see a long line of men with their hands tied behind their backs, connected by a rope to each other. They are being led by a soldier on horseback, who guides them towards a military training camp. The scene is both haunting and thought-provoking. The photograph was taken in the 19th century and published in "Le tour du monde" in 1873. It serves as an engraving to illustrate the voyage to New Granada by Dr. Saffray in 1869. This historical context adds depth and significance to the image. The composition of this photograph is striking; it highlights the vulnerability and powerlessness of these volunteers as they embark on their journey. The contrast between light and shadow creates a dramatic effect that draws viewers into the scene. This print from Fine Art Finder's Selva Collection offers us a glimpse into an important moment in time when individuals were compelled to join military forces against their will or under uncertain circumstances. As we reflect upon this image, let us remember those who have sacrificed for causes beyond themselves throughout history. May it serve as a reminder of our collective responsibility to strive for peace, justice, and freedom for all humanity.
