EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a unique scene from the battlefields of World War I. Titled "Butchers on a barge, Somme, northern France, c1914-c1918" this image is part of a series of glass plate stereoview images that provide glimpses into the realities faced during this tumultuous period in history. In this particular photograph, we see a group of butchers aboard a barge in the picturesque region of Picardy. These men are engaged in their daily occupation amidst the chaos and destruction brought about by war. Their presence serves as a reminder that even in times of conflict, life continues to carry on with its mundane routines. The significance lies not only in their profession but also in their role as providers of sustenance for both soldiers and civilians alike. As they navigate through the waters of the Somme River, these brave individuals ensure that food reaches those who need it most. The monochrome composition adds depth and intensity to the image while highlighting every detail captured by an unknown photographer during this era. It serves as a poignant reminder of how ordinary people were thrust into extraordinary circumstances during World War I. This print from The Print Collector offers us an opportunity to reflect upon the resilience and determination displayed by individuals like these butchers who played crucial roles behind-the-scenes amidst one of history's deadliest conflicts.
