EDITORS COMMENTS
The Bolshevik Coup in Russia: Kerensky at the Time of His Fall, 1917" is a poignant photograph capturing a pivotal moment in Russian history. The image, taken from the French publication "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, Paris, 1924, depicts Alexander Kerensky, the former Russian Prime Minister, at the moment of his downfall during the October Revolution. Kerensky, dressed in a formal suit and wearing a serious expression, gazes directly at the camera with a determined yet resigned look. His hair, slicked back and neatly parted, contrasts with the chaos and turmoil that was engulfing Russia at the time. The photograph captures the political and social upheaval of the era, with Kerensky representing the old order that was being overthrown by the Bolsheviks. The October Revolution, also known as the Bolshevik Coup, was a pivotal moment in Russian history that marked the end of the Provisional Government and the beginning of the Soviet Union. The revolution took place in October 1917, and Kerensky's government was overthrown by the Bolsheviks, led by Vladimir Lenin. The photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the political and social upheaval that took place during this period, and the significant role that Kerensky played in Russian history. The photograph is a valuable historical document, providing a glimpse into the past and offering insights into the people and events that shaped the 20th century. Its inclusion in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" attests to its historical significance and enduring importance in understanding the complexities of Russian history during the First World War era.
