Two Staged Photographs of French Casualties From the Battle of Buzenval During the Siege of Paris (1871)


A similar photograph from Tips Images. At least two of the men look like they are also in the photograph above.

Two staged or reenactment photographs showing scenes of French casualties from the Battle of Buzenval during the Siege of Paris, France, c. 1871. Other sources say the photographs are of casualties actually during the Paris Commune or Franco-Prussian War, but this seems quite unlikely.
