EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1899 depicts a shocking incident that occurred on the road of the forest of Choisy au Bac in France. The image, originally published in "Le petit journal" showcases an attack carried out by an armed individual riding in a car. Tragically, the victim was an itinerant hardware worker who lost his life after being shot three times. The engraving, part of the Selva Collection and captured by Henri Meyer, offers a glimpse into the crime scene and its aftermath during the late 19th century. The black-and-white image is filled with details that highlight both the brutality and complexity of this event. As we examine this historical artifact, we are transported back to a time when press coverage played a crucial role in documenting such incidents. The intensity of emotions conveyed through this engraving reminds us of how deeply these events impacted society at that time. Leonard de Selva's photograph beautifully captures not only the essence but also the colors and vibrancy present within this piece. It serves as a reminder of our shared history and allows us to reflect upon how far we have come since then.
