Description: Flogging of a Putumayo native, carried out by the employees of Julio César Arana. Photograph taken by Eugène Robuchon sometime between 1902-1904. Robuchon was hired by Arana and later disappeared in the Putumayo. It’s speculated that Arana arranged to have Robuchon murdered over an attempt to expose the Putumayo atrocities. Another theory is that he was killed by natives angry at foreigners in the region.
