EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is taken from the illustrated supplement of the Petit Journal, a renowned French newspaper, published in Paris during the late 19th century. The photograph, captured in Cuba during the Spanish-American War of 1898, depicts American troops disembarking from a ship in Guantanamo Bay under the warm, golden glow of the sun. The troops, dressed in their military uniforms, are seen stepping onto the Cuban soil, marking the beginning of the United States' military occupation of the region. The vertical composition of the photograph, with the sun casting long shadows and the American flag proudly displayed on the ship, adds to the sense of drama and historical significance. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the litography technique bring the scene to life, transporting us back in time to witness this pivotal moment in Cuban and American history." "The National Library of France houses this precious piece of history, preserving it for future generations to study and appreciate. This image offers a unique perspective on the Spanish-American War, providing a visual account of the military presence in Cuba and the beginning of the United States' involvement in the region. The image's vertical orientation and the use of natural daylight further enhance the sense of authenticity and realism, making it a valuable addition to any historical collection." "The image's caption in the Petit Journal reads 'Cuba. Spanish-American War (1898). American troops disembark in Guantanamo.' This photograph is not to be confused with any commercial use of the name 'Petit Journal' or any related companies. It is a historical document, and its rights are managed by Mary Evans Prints Online.
