EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the predication of the holy war on the northern border of English India by Muslim rebels. The engraving, featured in "Le petit journal" on October 3rd, 1897, showcases the organized uprising of the population for their country's independence. The image portrays a preacher passionately addressing a crowd, his words resonating with hope and determination. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as men and women from all walks of life gather to hear his message. Their faces reflect both eagerness and resolve, united in their fight against colonial rule. The composition exudes vibrant colors that symbolize not only diversity but also unity among those present. It serves as a powerful reminder that this struggle transcends religious and cultural boundaries; it is about reclaiming freedom and autonomy. This engraving by Meaulle and Tofani immortalizes an era marked by anticolonialism movements across Asia during the late nineteenth century. It stands as a testament to the resilience of Indian Muslims who sought to shape their own destiny amidst oppressive foreign rule. Leonard de Selva's photograph preserves this historic moment for future generations to witness and learn from. It reminds us of the power of collective action fueled by faith, courage, and unwavering belief in one's cause – an inspiration that continues to resonate today.
