EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Two sentries shooting at would-be saboteurs on the French railways" captures a dramatic scene during the railway workers strike of 1910. In this intense moment, two sentries are seen firing their weapons at fleeing saboteurs who were attempting to disrupt the French railways. The litho, created by an anonymous artist from the 20th century, showcases a vivid display of color and motion. The image depicts a chaotic scene as the cavalry guards pursue the surprised saboteurs on horseback. The blurred motion adds to the sense of urgency and action in this industrial dispute. As tensions rise and unrest spreads, these brave soldiers take it upon themselves to protect France's vital transport system from sabotage. The composition is filled with details that bring this historical event to life - from the railway tracks disappearing into a tunnel in the background to the determined expressions on both sides of this conflict. This artwork was originally published as an illustration for Le Petit Journal on November 13,1910. Through this powerful image, we glimpse into a tumultuous period in French history where social movements clashed with military forces. It serves as a reminder of how ordinary people can become caught up in extraordinary circumstances during times of societal upheaval.
