EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Indios Coroados, 1895" showcases the remarkable work of artist Francisco Henszler. Taken in Sao Paulo during the late 19th century, this portrait captures a group of indigenous people from Brazil known as the Indios Coroados. In this outdoor setting, we see a diverse range of individuals - men, boys, and one young boy in particular who stands out with his direct gaze towards the camera. The subjects are dressed in traditional Brazilian attire and adorned with hats that shield them from the sun's rays. Some carry weapons such as rifles, symbolizing their readiness to defend their land. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to this historical image while emphasizing the intensity of these native warriors. Their barechested appearance reflects their connection to nature and signifies their resilience against adversity. Gustavo Koenigswald's book "Sao Paulo" provides valuable context for understanding this photograph within its cultural and historical significance. It serves as a reminder of Brazil's rich indigenous heritage and highlights the bravery and strength exhibited by these local people during times of war. This print is an extraordinary piece that transports us back to a pivotal moment in Brazilian history when indigenous communities fought fiercely for their rights and preservation. It stands as a testament to both Francisco Henszler's artistic talent and the enduring spirit of Brazil's native population.
