EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and inspiring print from Mary Evans Picture Library captures the courageous Alexandrine Barreau, who defied societal norms and joined her two brothers in the French revolutionary army. In a time when women were expected to stay at home, Alexandrine put on the same uniform as her brothers and fought alongside them on the battlefield. Her bravery knew no bounds as she not only fought for her country's rights but also tended to her brothers' wounds when necessary. The image of Alexandrine standing side by side with her siblings, united in their fight for freedom, is a testament to the strength and resilience of women throughout history. The historical significance of this photograph cannot be understated, as it sheds light on the often overlooked contributions of women in war. Alexandrine Barreau's story serves as a reminder that gender should never be a barrier to fighting for what is right. As we reflect on this image, let us honor the memory of all those like Alexandrine who have bravely stood up against injustice and oppression. May their courage continue to inspire future generations to strive for equality and justice for all.
