EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us to the Camp of the Foreign Legion in Ain Fritissa, Morocco during the 20th century. A French postcard captured this moment in time, showcasing a group of men dressed in military attire enjoying their leisurely mealtime at the camp's canteen. The image exudes a sense of companionship and contentment as these soldiers relax amidst their duties. The lighting adds depth to the scene, casting shadows that highlight each man's features and emphasizing the contrast between light and dark. Outside their tents, these legionnaires find solace from war by indulging in some well-deserved rest and relaxation. Some can be seen smoking while others enjoy their food from tin cans. This photograph not only captures a specific location but also represents an era marked by colonialism and warfare. It serves as a reminder of France's presence in Morocco during this period, with its military personnel stationed far away from home. Preserved through art media, this print allows us to glimpse into history and appreciate the sacrifices made by these brave men who served their country thousands of miles away from familiar surroundings. As we observe this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of both the hardships endured by soldiers on duty and moments of respite they found within camaraderie at camp.
