EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the moment US Cavalry troops, mounted on horseback, cross the Rio Grande River from Texas into Mexico during the early 20th century. Circa 1915, this historic photograph presents a striking tableau of the borderlands between the United States and Mexico. The troops, led by their officers, make their way across a pontoon bridge, the water below them a murky brown as it flows gently between the two countries. The horses, their coats glistening with moisture, seem to sense the historical significance of the moment, their ears pricked forward. On the Mexican side, a small crowd of onlookers gathers, their expressions a mix of curiosity, apprehension, and perhaps even defiance. The Rio Grande, a natural barrier and a symbol of division and unity, stretches out behind them, its waters reflecting the clear blue sky above. This powerful image offers a glimpse into a time when the US-Mexico border was a contested space, and the actions of these mounted troops were a testament to the complex and evolving relationship between the two nations.
