Le Retour a la Paix; Au Chateau de Saint-Germain-en-Laye, le 2 Juin 1919 - Depart des Plenipotentiaires Autrichiens
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a striking photograph capturing a significant moment in history. The image, created in 1919, depicts a group of Austrian delegates leaving the Chateau de Saint-Germain-en-Laye in France, following a brief and unadorned session where they were presented with the conditions of peace. The Chateau de Saint-Germain-en-Laye, an elegant country house situated in Ile de France, France, served as the backdrop for this historic event. The Treaty of Saint-Germain-en-Laye, signed on September 10, 1919, marked the end of Austria-Hungary as an independent state and the beginning of the Austrian Republic. In this photograph, several men, dressed in formal attire, are seen departing the castle, likely to return to their respective countries to discuss and ratify the terms of the treaty. Their expressions are serious, reflecting the gravity of the situation. The image encapsulates the political and diplomatic atmosphere of the post-World War I era, as countries worked to rebuild and redefine their relationships in the wake of the devastating conflict. The photograph, published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924, remains an intriguing reminder of the diplomatic efforts that shaped the world after World War I. The identity of the photographer remains unknown, adding to the mystery and historical significance of this powerful image.
