EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the harrowing scene of Turkish peasants fleeing towards Constantinople during the Balkan Wars in 1912. The desperation and fear in their eyes are palpable, as they escape the ravages of war and seek safety in the bustling city. Published in Le Petit Journal, Paris, on 24 November 1912, this image serves as a stark reminder of the human cost of conflict. The colors are vivid and striking, bringing to life the chaos and turmoil that these refugees faced on their journey. The central figure, a Muslim woman clutching her child tightly to her chest, symbolizes the resilience and strength of those forced to flee their homes. The backdrop of war-torn landscapes adds a sense of urgency to their flight, highlighting the harsh realities of war. As we reflect on this historical moment captured by Bridgeman Images from Fine Art Finder, we are reminded of the importance of empathy and compassion towards those who have been displaced by violence. This photograph is not just a snapshot from history but a poignant reminder that behind every refugee is a story of survival and hope for a better future.
