EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a group of uniformed men standing at attention in the rugged mountains of Kashgar, western China, during the 1930s. The men are arranged in two neat rows, with one man positioned at the centre, proudly standing before a square archway. The archway, adorned with intricate Oriental designs, adds an air of mystery and historical significance to the scene. The men, dressed in their military uniforms, exude a sense of discipline and order. Their uniforms, with distinctive Chinese insignia, suggest that they were part of the Chinese military presence in the Xinjiang region during this time. The racial diversity among the soldiers is a testament to the multicultural makeup of the Chinese military and the broader population of Xinjiang. The photograph, taken by renowned British photographer Ralph Ponsonby Watts in 1932, offers a glimpse into the past and provides valuable insights into the historical context of this region during the 1930s. The mountains in the background add to the scenic beauty of the image, making it a captivating and intriguing representation of a bygone era. The photograph is a reminder of the rich history and cultural diversity of China, particularly in the Xinjiang region, and the role that the military played in shaping the region's social and political landscape during this period.
