michaellinder Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Sandy, these images are fascinating, both in terms of their appearance and style, but also as documenting the war. Recently, I saw an amazing film, "The Four Feathers." which is set during the same period of history and involving the same war. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy Vongries Posted October 21, 2018 Author Share Posted October 21, 2018 I saw that film as well, but looong ago. Will need to revisit. Thanks for reminding me of it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c_watson1 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Er, wrong time and wrong war. “Four Feathers” was set in the Sudan in1875. An interesting discussion of the Crimea conflict’s.most famous image, Fenton’s Valley of the Shadow of Death can be found in Errol Morris’ “Believing is Seeing.” We’re all those cannon balls carefully staged? Read Morris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
