EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history from France, Alsace, Bas-Rhin (67), Strasbourg during the German occupation in 1890. The image showcases the bridge of Kiel with hippomobile cars crossing over, providing a glimpse into daily life during this tumultuous time.
The presence of these horse-drawn vehicles on the bridge serves as a reminder of the transportation methods used before the advent of modern automobiles. The architecture of the bridge and surrounding buildings adds to the historical significance of the scene, reflecting both German influence and French heritage in Alsace.
Against the backdrop of international relations and war agreements such as the War of 1870, this photograph offers a unique perspective on a period marked by political tensions and territorial disputes. It is a testament to how art can capture not only moments in time but also evoke emotions and memories associated with them.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to an era where alliances were shifting, borders were being redrawn, and everyday life was shaped by larger geopolitical forces. Through this lens, we gain insight into a chapter of history that continues to resonate today.
