EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - Tunisia, July 1881: French troops taking control of the city of Stax after a fierce revolt by its inhabitants against the French protectorate. The engraving, skillfully created by De Haenen, is featured in "The Illustrous World". No. 1270 issue dated July 30,1881. In this street scene depicted with meticulous detail, we witness the intensity of battle as Tunisian combatants clash with French forces. The image portrays the struggle for power between colonialism and anticolonialism that plagued North Africa during this era. The photograph offers a glimpse into the complex dynamics between France and Tunisia at that time. It serves as a reminder of the resistance faced by colonized nations striving for independence from their European rulers. Preserved within a private collection, this historical artifact sheds light on an important chapter in both Tunisian and French history. Its inclusion in Stefano Bianchetti's portfolio showcases his expertise in capturing poignant moments through his lens. As we reflect upon this image today, it prompts us to contemplate themes such as imperialism, cultural identity, and national sovereignty. This engraving stands as a testament to human resilience and determination amid turbulent times - an enduring symbol of struggle against oppression.
