EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful image captures the intensity and determination of the Mexican guerilla forces during the Mexican-American War in 1847. The crowd of fighters, a mix of horseback riders and foot soldiers, charge fearlessly towards the viewer with a fierce resolve. Armed with swords, lances, and rifles, they embody the tenacity and courage of the Mexican resistance against the invading American army. The year was marked by significant battles, including the Battle of Churubusco and the Battle of Chapultepec, as the Mexican forces fought valiantly to defend their homeland. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the complex and often overlooked history of the Mexican-American War, and the bravery and resilience of those who fought in it. The image, published by the Illustrated London News Ltd in 1847, offers a unique and compelling perspective on this pivotal moment in history.
