EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the arrival of General de Berthier's Brigade before the city of Xalapa in 1863 during the French Intervention in Mexico. The photograph depicts a grand procession of horses pulling heavy cannons, accompanied by soldiers riding on horseback and marching on foot. The road leading into the distance signifies the approach to Xalapa, the capital city of the state of Vera Cruz. The year was pivotal in the Mexican-French War, as the French forces, led by General de Berthier, sought to expand their control over the region. The soldiers' determined expressions and the orderly arrangement of the troops convey a sense of purpose and discipline. The arrival of the brigade marked a significant event in the military campaign, as Xalapa was a strategic location and the outcome of the battle would have important consequences for the course of the war. This historic photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of conflict and struggle, and providing a visual record of an important moment in Mexican history.
