EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled ""L'histoire d'Alsace raconte aux enfants par l'oncle Hansi" (illustration) captures a captivating scene from early 20th century Europe. In this enchanting illustration by Jean-Jacques Waltz, also known as Hansi, we are transported to the streets of Alsace, France. The image depicts a soldier in his military uniform standing outside a barber shop. The soldier is engrossed in writing and observing the bustling street scene while holding a notebook. His distinctive hairstyle and attire suggest that he may be German or have connections to Germany. This intriguing tableau tells us a story of history and culture through its careful details. The presence of the soldier implies an era marked by conflict between France and Germany, with Alsace caught in between. Uncle Hansi's work was renowned for its ability to convey historical events to children, making it accessible and engaging. The engraving beautifully captures the essence of early 20th-century life - from the architecture of buildings lining the street to the laborious activity within shops. It serves as both an artistic representation and a historical document that transports us back in time. This print offers us a glimpse into European history, showcasing not only Uncle Hansi's talent but also providing insight into French-German relations during this period. It is truly an invaluable piece that invites contemplation on our shared pasts and cultural heritage.
