EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a page from the "Letter M and N: Moroccan and Black (Senegalese shooter)" war alphabet, illustrated by Henri Lanos in the late 19th to early 20th century. Published by Hachette et Cie around 1916, this unique piece measures 31x23.5 cm and is part of a private collection. The image features an African soldier from Senegal holding a rifle, representing the letter N in the war alphabet. This powerful illustration highlights the significant contribution of African soldiers during World War I, particularly those from Morocco and Senegal who fought alongside French forces. Henri Lanos skillfully captures both the strength and dignity of these brave soldiers through his detailed artwork. The inclusion of such diverse individuals in this war alphabet serves as a reminder of the global impact of colonialism during that time period. This photograph not only commemorates an important historical event but also sheds light on lesser-known aspects of World War I history. It symbolizes unity between different cultures and emphasizes their shared experiences on the battlefield. With its rich historical context and artistic value, this print offers viewers a glimpse into an often overlooked chapter in military history. It serves as a poignant reminder that heroes can be found across all corners of our world, regardless of race or nationality.
