EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures a pivotal moment during the French intervention in Mexico, specifically the advance of the 51st Line and a company of the 7th Battalion of Chasseurs (Light Infantry) on the formidable terrain of the Devil's Backbone, also known as the Spine of Mexico, in 1865. The French forces, determined to secure their position and remove any opposition, press forward with unwavering resolve. The rugged landscape, dotted with cacti and rocky outcroppings, presents a formidable challenge to the soldiers, yet their discipline and determination are evident as they make their way up the steep incline. The eventual success of this campaign marked a significant turning point in the French conquest of Mexico, as they were able to consolidate their hold on the region and further their strategic objectives. This photograph, taken during this period of Mexican history, offers a glimpse into the courage and tenacity of the French soldiers as they faced the challenges of foreign terrain and adversity.
