EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - "The Battle of Isly on 16/08/1844 posing the Moroccans supporting Abd el Kader to the French". Painted by an artist from the 19th-century French School, this artwork is now housed in the Musee de l'Armee in Paris, France. The painting depicts a fierce battlefield scene during the conquest of Algeria. Intriguingly, it showcases Moroccan soldiers standing alongside Abd el Kader, who was leading resistance against French invasion. This collaboration between Moroccans and Algerians against their common enemy adds depth to the narrative portrayed in this piece. The artist's skillful brushstrokes bring life to every detail - from the intense combat between opposing forces to the vast desert landscape that serves as a backdrop. This artwork not only commemorates an important military event but also reflects upon larger themes such as colonialism and power dynamics within North Africa. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, we are reminded of the complexities of war and its impact on different cultures. It serves as a visual testament to both African resilience and European imperialism. Through art like this, we can delve into our shared past and gain insights into our present realities.
