EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Cholera, 1912" captures a haunting scene from the First Balkan War. In the midst of warfare between Turkey and the Balkan League, an unseen enemy emerged - cholera. The image depicts Death himself, personified as the grim reaper, mercilessly decimating a column of Turkish soldiers. During this tumultuous time in history, the Turkish army was not only battling their human adversaries but also grappling with a devastating cholera epidemic. With each passing day, this ruthless disease claimed the lives of 100 soldiers. This illustration from Le Petit Journal serves as a chilling reminder of how war can unleash unforeseen horrors upon those who partake in it. The artist's use of color adds depth to this allegorical figure; his black cloak billows ominously against a vibrant backdrop. The military uniforms worn by these ill-fated soldiers symbolize their dedication and sacrifice for their country. This powerful image is both an artistic representation and historical documentation of the impact that epidemics can have on armed forces during times of conflict. It serves as a somber reflection on the fragility of life and highlights how science and medicine were unable to protect these brave men from succumbing to such an insidious foe. "Cholera, 1912" stands as a testament to humanity's resilience in facing adversity while reminding us never to forget those whose lives were lost during this turbulent period in history.
