EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print from the First World War captures a moment of tension and defiance between a soldier and a bourgeois in France in 1916. The soldier, proudly wearing his uniform and war medal, confronts the bourgeois in a high hat with a bold declaration: "ohe the bourgeois you do not have them." This scene encapsulates the societal divisions and class struggles that were heightened during wartime.
The soldier's gaze is intense, reflecting determination and pride in his service to his country. His words challenge the bourgeois, who represents privilege and wealth but lacks the honor of serving on the front lines. The contrast between their appearances symbolizes the disparities between those who fight for their nation's freedom and those who benefit from it without sacrifice.
In this patriotic map drawing, we see not only a representation of individual bravery but also a commentary on social inequality during times of conflict. The photograph serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers like him, as well as an indictment of those who do not share in that sacrifice. It is a poignant snapshot of history that continues to resonate today.
