EDITORS COMMENTS
Andre-Adolphe-Eugene Disderi's panorama: group portrait of soldiers, 1870, captures a striking image of the 95th Battalion during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-1871. The black and white albumen print, taken on albumin paper, showcases a group of men standing in a courtyard, each with a direct gaze and a determined expression. The soldiers, dressed in their military uniforms, are arranged in a panoramic format, filling the entire frame from side to side. The building exterior in the background adds a sense of location and context to the image, while the men's uniforms and apparel provide insight into the fashion of the time. The soldiers of the Garde Nationale, the French national militia, are seen standing shoulder to shoulder, ready for defense. Disderi's use of the letterbox format emphasizes the horizontal expanse of the image, drawing the viewer's eye across the entire scene. The soldiers, who appear to be looking directly at the camera, engage the viewer with their intense gazes. This historic photograph, now held at the Musee Carnavalet in Paris, Ile de France, France, is a testament to the bravery and determination of the soldiers during a pivotal moment in French history. The image is a valuable addition to the heritage of graphic arts and photography, offering a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the concept of defense and the role of the armed forces in shaping the course of history.
