EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, titled "Zouave 2nd Division" and published in 1856, is a self-portrait by renowned English photographer Roger Fenton in collaboration with Marcus Sparling. The image captures the raw intensity and discipline of the Zouave soldiers, a French colonial infantry regiment known for their distinctive red fez, white trousers, and blue jackets. Fenton, a pioneer in the field of war photography, captured this image during the Crimean War, a major European conflict that took place between 1853 and 1856. The soldiers in the photograph are shown in a formal, posed arrangement, each man holding his rifle at the ready and gazing directly at the camera with unwavering focus. Their uniforms are meticulously pressed and clean, a testament to their military training and discipline. The use of a salted paper print process adds to the photograph's historical significance, as it was a popular method for producing photographs during the mid-19th century. The image is now held in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, where it serves as an important reminder of the fashion and military practices of the time, as well as the role of photography in documenting history. The direct gaze of the soldiers in the photograph creates a sense of connection between the viewer and the subjects, making it a powerful and enduring image that continues to captivate audiences today.
