EDITORS COMMENTS
The photograph captures a poignant moment in history, showcasing the "Album of the Isle of Pines, Roll call of the deportees" from 1878-79. This lithograph by the French School in the 19th century is now housed at Musee d Art et d Histoire in Saint-Denis, France. The image depicts a group of prisoners lined up within a fenced enclosure on the Isle of Pines, which was part of Nouvelle Caledonie. These individuals were known as deportees and had been sent to this remote island as punishment for their involvement in political activities during that time. Despite their circumstances, these men stand tall and resilient. The photo showcases their barefooted presence as they await roll call under Leonce Rousset's direction. Their faces bear expressions that reflect both determination and resilience amidst adversity. This photograph serves as evidence captured by these deportees themselves through an album they created to document what they witnessed on the island. It sheds light on colonialism and penal colonies prevalent during this period. The composition also highlights elements such as huts, a canteen, and a sign indicating it is part of Melanesia's archipelago. The image offers viewers insight into life within this overseas French department while emphasizing its significance within Pacific Ocean territories. Overall, this print provides us with historical context surrounding deportation practices and serves as a reminder of human strength even in challenging circumstances.
