    A historical black-and-white photograph of the Haitian Gendarmerie Band in Gunives, Haiti, as identified by the handwritten red caption at the bottom. The group of uniformed musicians is posed outdoors on a dirt road in front of a thatched-roof structure, holding various brass and wind instruments. The image appears to date from the early 20th century, likely during the U.S. occupation of Haiti (1915–1934).
