EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century captures a significant moment in history - the march of General Joseph Joffre and his army of spahis on Timbuktu, Mali. The image, originally published in "Le Parisien" in 1894, showcases the power and influence of French colonialism during this era. The scene depicts a column of soldiers led by General Joffre as they make their way through the African landscape. The spahis, renowned for their skills as cavalry troops, ride alongside their leader with determination and pride. Their presence symbolizes France's military might and control over its colonies. The artist behind this remarkable print remains unknown, but their attention to detail is evident. Every stroke brings life to the soldiers' uniforms, horses' manes flowing in motion, and the vastness of the African terrain stretching into the distance. This engraving serves as a historical document that sheds light on an important chapter in both French and African history. It highlights not only military conquests but also cultural exchanges between nations during times of colonization. Today, this artwork resides within a private collection where it continues to inspire awe and curiosity about past events. Its black-and-white composition adds an air of nostalgia while emphasizing its significance as a piece of art that tells a story beyond words can convey.
