EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating photograph by Vladimir Betzitch, transports us back in time to the Macedonian front during the First World War in 1916. The image, published in "Collection de la Guerre IV. L'Illustration Tome CXLVII. La Guerre Juillet, Aout, Septembre, Octobre, Novembre, Decembre 1916," depicts a distant and desolate landscape, where the line between day and night blurs as gunfire from the Salonika front illuminates the mountainside. The hauntingly beautiful image captures the raw essence of the Macedonian campaign, with the jagged peaks of the Monts Nidze (Moglena) standing tall against the backdrop of a stormy sky. The mountains, which stretch across the border between present-day Greece and North Macedonia, served as a strategic location for both the French and Bulgarian armies during the conflict. The photograph, taken during the wartime hours, conveys a sense of isolation and distance, as if the viewer is an outsider looking in on the chaos and turmoil that unfolded on those distant mountainsides. The gunfire, which lights up the night sky, adds to the sense of tension and unease, reminding us of the brutal reality of war. Vladimir Betzitch, a renowned French photographer, captured this poignant moment in history, providing us with a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War. The photograph, with its timeless quality and powerful imagery, continues to resonate with viewers today, serving as a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the enduring power of art to capture the essence of history.
