EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Pongos, Indians subjected to servitude, at the fountain, in the square of the cabildo" takes us back in time to Cuzco, Peru during the mid-19th century. The image beautifully captures a moment of daily life in this South American city. In the foreground stands a group of indigenous people known as Pongos, who were unfortunately subjected to servitude during that era. They gather around a grand fountain located in the bustling square of Cabildo. A water carrier can be seen pouring water from a jug into one person's container while others patiently wait their turn. The architecture of nearby buildings provides an interesting backdrop for this scene. It showcases elements of Peruvian design and hints at the rich cultural heritage present throughout Cuzco. This engraving by Riou was created as part of Paul Marcoy's journey through South America from 1848 to 1860. It serves as an illustration within "Le tour du monde" edited by Edouard Charton in 1863. As we observe this historical snapshot frozen in time, it reminds us not only of past civilizations but also highlights important aspects such as social inequality and cultural diversity that shaped societies then and continue to shape them today.
