EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant moment during World War I, as a French soldier returns to his unit after a much-needed period of leave. The image, beautifully rendered in color lithography by Eugene Damblans, transports us back to the year 1915. The soldier's weary yet determined expression tells the story of countless men who left their families and homes behind to fight for their country. As he walks towards his comrades, we can almost feel the weight of his experiences etched on his face. The scene is filled with emotion as fellow soldiers eagerly welcome him back into their fold. Their camaraderie and friendship are palpable, reminding us that even amidst the horrors of war, bonds between soldiers endure. This powerful illustration originally appeared in Le Petit Journal on August 22nd, 1915 - an important piece of historical documentation from one of France's most influential newspapers at the time. It serves as both propaganda and a testament to the resilience and determination displayed by those serving on the Western Front. As we gaze upon this image today, it serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by millions during World War I. It is a tribute not only to this particular French soldier but also to all those who fought bravely in what would later be known as "the Great War. "
