Although it is intended as a documentary image, it is also a fine portrait in its own right.

Note the stricken "Seneg" in the caption... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Senegalese_Tirailleurs The Senegalese Tirailleurs (French: Tirailleurs Sénégalais) were a corps of colonial infantry in the French Army recruited from Senegal, French West Africa and throughout west, central and east Africa, the main province of the French colonial empire. The noun tirailleur, which translates as "skirmisher", was a designation given by the French Army to indigenous infantry recruited in the various colonies and overseas possessions of the French Empire during the 19th and 20th centuries. Despite recruitment not being limited to Senegal, these infantry units took on the adjective "sénégalais" since that was where the first black African Tirailleur regiment had been formed. The first Senegalese Tirailleurs were formed in 1857 and served France in a number of wars, including World War I (providing around 200,000 troops, more than 135,000 of whom fought in Europe and 30,000 of whom were killed) and World War II. Other tirailleur regiments were raised in French North Africa from the Arab and Berber populations of Algeria, Tunisia and Morocco, they were called Tirailleurs algériens or Turcos. Tirailleur regiments were also raised in Indochina, they were called Vietnamese, Tonkinese or Annamites Tirailleurs.

The name seems oddly familiar, and she makes for a compelling visual subject.

A Lucie Laval (1895-1914) was born in Dakar, Senegal, the daughter of a French diplomat. She was educated in France, but at 13 moved to Brazil with her parents. She began writing poetry, most of which was published posthumously: she died at age 19, in 1914, from heart disease. palavrastodaspalavras.wordpress.com/2007/12/12/heures-sol...
