EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures a moment of respite for the German army, known as the Grey Invaders, during World War I. The soldiers are seen resting in a sunken road, their weary faces and worn uniforms telling the story of the hardships they faced on the battlefield. The image is from The Pageant of the Century, a publication from 1934 that sought to document and commemorate one of the most tumultuous periods in modern history.
The Great War, as it was known at the time, forever changed the course of Europe and left an indelible mark on all those who lived through it. The German army was a formidable force during this conflict, earning them both fear and respect from their enemies. In this photo, we see them not as aggressors or conquerors, but as human beings caught up in a brutal and unforgiving war.
As we look back on this historical moment captured by Hilary Morgan's lens, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by countless individuals who fought bravely for their countries. It serves as a poignant reminder of the cost of war and encourages us to never forget those who gave everything for causes they believed in.
