EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled 'La Nouvelle Europe: la guerre civile à Berlin; les facades mitraillées du Marstall, batiment contenant les écuries royales et où s'étaient retranchés, les matelots spartakistes' (The New Europe: the civil war in Berlin; the bullet-riddled facades of the Marstall, building containing the royal stables and where the Spartacus League sailors had barricaded themselves), was published in 'L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2' by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924. The image captures the chaotic aftermath of the German Revolution, specifically the Battle of Berlin in December 1918. The Marstall, a grand building located in Schlossplatz, once housed the royal stables but now served as a fortified stronghold for the Spartacus League sailors during the final days of the First World War. The facade of the building is pockmarked with bullet holes, a stark reminder of the intense street fighting that had taken place. The image, a testament to the tumultuous period of post-war political crisis, conveys a sense of damage, destruction, and rebellion. The photograph offers a glimpse into the pivotal moment in history when the German people were fighting for a new beginning, ultimately leading to the establishment of the Weimar Republic.
