EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print depicts the Battle of Velestino, a significant event during the Greco-Turkish War on 28th April 1897. The artwork, created by an anonymous European School artist in the late 19th or early 20th century, showcases a historical moment that shaped Greek history. The image transports us to the battlefield where Greek soldiers valiantly fought against their Turkish adversaries. The scene is filled with intensity and chaos as troops engage in combat. Wounded soldiers lie scattered across the ground, highlighting the brutal reality of war and its toll on human life. Amidst this turmoil, we see glimpses of medical personnel attending to injured soldiers. Their presence emphasizes not only the physical consequences of battle but also highlights humanity's commitment to healing and preserving life even amidst conflict. The inclusion of Asklepios, the ancient Greek god associated with medicine and healing, further underscores this theme. Asclepius stands as a symbol of hope and resilience amidst adversity—a reminder that even in times of war, there is still room for compassion and care. This educational card serves as both a historical record and an opportunity for reflection on past conflicts. It reminds us of our collective responsibility to learn from history's lessons while striving for peace in our present world.
