EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, a group of Breton nationalists, members of the Breton Independence Movement, gather together in the 1930s, advocating for the independence of Brittany, the northernmost region of France and the last remaining Celtic stronghold in the country. The region, rich in Celtic culture and history, had long sought autonomy from the French government, and the nationalist movement gained momentum during this period. The Breton nationalists are depicted wearing traditional Breton attire, including berets and striped shirts, and some bear the flag of Brittany, which features a golden armored man, known as St. Michael, slaying a dragon. The presence of this flag, along with the group's determined expressions, underscores their commitment to their cause. The Breton Independence Movement was not without controversy, as it was said to have the support of Irish and German extremists. The Irish connection stemmed from the shared Celtic heritage, while the German support was believed to be due to the Nazi regime's interest in promoting ethnic nationalism and the potential strategic value of Brittany as a buffer zone between France and Germany. Despite the challenges, the Breton nationalist movement continued to gain ground, fueled by a deep-rooted desire for self-determination and a strong sense of cultural identity. The photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the complex political landscape of the 1930s and the enduring spirit of those who fought for the recognition and independence of their homeland.
