EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful lithograph captures the tense moment of conscription in Russia during the early 20th century. The image depicts young men drawing lots for military service, a pivotal moment that could determine their fate in war. The artist, Henri Lanos, skillfully conveys the anxiety and uncertainty on the faces of the soldiers as they participate in this crucial process.
The scene is set against a backdrop of historical significance, showcasing the imperialist ambitions and militaristic culture of Russia at that time. The black and white composition adds to the dramatic effect, emphasizing the gravity of the situation unfolding before our eyes.
As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back in time to an era marked by conflict and sacrifice. It serves as a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the sacrifices made by those who serve their country.
Through Lanos' masterful depiction, we are given a glimpse into a chapter of history that shaped nations and lives forever. This print is not just a work of art; it is a window into a world filled with bravery, fear, and duty.
