EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Les Americains dans le Luxembourg; A Luxembourg, sur le balcon du Palais, aux cotes de la grande-duchesse règneante, le général Pershing et le major général J.T. Dickman," was published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924. The scene unfolds in Luxembourg City during the aftermath of the First World War, as General John J. Pershing, Commander-in-Chief of the American Expeditionary Forces, and Major General Joseph T. Dickman, Commanding General of the 3rd Army, stand on the balcony of the Palace, overlooking the parade of US infantry marching towards the Rhine. The grand duchess Marie Adelaide of Luxembourg, dressed in royal attire, observes the procession with the two esteemed commanders. The black-and-white image captures the essence of the liberated city, with the architectural features of the palace providing a striking backdrop to the military scene. The soldiers, having played a significant role in the occupation of Germany, proudly march through the streets of Luxembourg, marking the beginning of the postwar era. This powerful image encapsulates the spirit of peace and unity that followed the end of the war, as the Allied forces celebrated their victories and looked towards a hopeful future.
