EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the essence of life during the First World War in France. The postcard depicts a reproduction of Millet's Angelus, with a peasant couple deep in thought about the soldiers fighting on the front lines. As they work to defend and maintain their land, their minds are consumed by thoughts of war and patriotism.
The image beautifully encapsulates the daily struggles faced by civilians during this tumultuous time. The backdrop of a battlefield serves as a stark reminder of the harsh realities of war, juxtaposed against the peaceful serenity of rural life.
The woman is seen carrying a basket, symbolizing her resilience and determination to carry on despite the chaos around her. The man pushes a barrow, representing his commitment to protecting his homeland even as he labors in the fields.
In this moment frozen in time, we witness not only an agricultural scene but also a poignant reflection on sacrifice and duty. The couple's prayerful posture speaks volumes about their hopes for peace and safety for those fighting at the front.
This photograph serves as a haunting reminder of the human cost of war and pays tribute to those who bravely defended their country during one of history's darkest chapters.
