The Eastern Crisis, a Journey to Canea and the Headquarters of Colonel Vassos
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph captured by an English photographer in the 19th century. This historic print, part of a private collection, offers a glimpse into the tumultuous times during the governorship of Colonel Vassos amidst the Cretan revolts. The image portrays Lieutenant Kalinski and Lieutenant Vassos standing proudly alongside their troops at their headquarters in Candia. In this poignant scene, we see not only soldiers but also children - perhaps representing hope for a better future amidst the chaos. The Turkish village nearby serves as a stark reminder of the conflict that has ravaged this region. The presence of Madame Vassos suggests that even amidst war, life goes on with families trying to maintain some semblance of normalcy. One cannot help but be drawn to Timoleon Vassos, son of Colonel Vassos, who stands beside his father's house. As the sole survivor from his family, he embodies resilience and strength in face of adversity. This powerful photograph captures both military might and human vulnerability. It transports us back to an era where political tensions ran high and lives were forever changed by war. Through its lens, we are reminded of our shared history and how it shapes our present-day world.
