EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of daily life for soldiers during World War I, with a humorous twist. The engraving of "The soldier's alphabet" features the letter K as "the morning Kaka," showcasing a broom and loaves of bread symbolizing breakfast time in the barracks.
Published by E.R. Stop! in Paris circa 1916, this series of 25 postcards was used by soldiers during the war and around 1930. Measuring at 9.5x14cm, these postcards provided a glimpse into military life and served as a source of entertainment for troops.
The image evokes a sense of camaraderie among soldiers as they start their day with a cup of cocoa or coffee, surrounded by household items such as jugs and linens. The playful depiction of the letter K adds a touch of humor to an otherwise challenging period in history.
Part of a private collection, this print offers viewers a window into early twentieth-century European culture and military customs. It serves as a reminder of the resilience and spirit displayed by those who served during wartime, finding moments of joy even amidst difficult circumstances.
