EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of wartime communication with a unique engraving of "The soldier's alphabet" featuring the letter M: Martyrs of love. Published by E.R. Stop! in Paris circa 1916, this series of 25 postcards was used by soldiers during the tumultuous years of World War I and beyond into the 1930s.
Measuring at 9.5x14cm, this piece is part of a private collection, offering a glimpse into the daily lives and humor of military personnel during times of conflict. The intricate details in the engraving showcase not only practical communication but also a touch of whimsy with its playful depiction.
The chair and tablecloth featured in the background add to the charm and authenticity of this historical artifact from early twentieth-century France. The use of an alphabet letter as a form of coded messaging speaks to both practicality and creativity amidst challenging circumstances.
As we reflect on this piece, we are reminded not only of the sacrifices made by those who served but also the resilience and ingenuity that defined their experiences. This print serves as a poignant reminder of human connection and perseverance in times marked by turmoil.
