EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of intense turmoil during an uprising on the island of Formosa in 1930. The image, featured on the front cover of "Le Petit Journal Illustre" depicts a sensationalist scene where revolting natives attack a Japanese school, resulting in the tragic death of twenty young girls. This incident occurred amidst the backdrop of Japanese colonial forces occupying Formosa (now Taiwan). The photograph serves as a stark reminder of long-term oppression endured by indigenous people under Japanese imperialism. In October 1930, their frustration and resistance culminated in an organized rebellion against their occupiers. The attack on Musyaji Elementary School saw 134 Japanese individuals, including women and children, lose their lives. The graphic design and dramatic color scheme employed in this print emphasize the gravity and brutality of this event. It is important to note that this depiction may have been sensationalized for journalistic purposes at the time. Ultimately, this powerful image sheds light on a significant chapter in history when local inhabitants fought back against foreign occupation. It stands as a testament to both the resilience and tragedy experienced by those caught up in conflicts fueled by colonialism and territorial disputes.
