EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Les Fuyards: La panique - soldats russes fuyant eperdument a travers un village apres avoir jete leurs armes a la voix d'un provocateur criant que la cavalerie allemande avait perce,' depicts a chaotic scene of Russian soldiers in full retreat through a village during the First World War. The year is 1917, and the fear and panic etched on the faces of these men are palpable as they abandon their weapons and flee in the face of an imminent threat. The image is taken from 'L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2' published by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924. The print offers a poignant glimpse into the raw emotion and chaos of war, as these soldiers, once defenders of their country, become fugitives in the face of the enemy's advance. The backdrop of the photograph is a quaint European village, with a church steeple visible in the distance, adding a sense of contrast to the scene. The image is a powerful reminder of the human cost of war and the fear that can drive men to abandon their posts and flee in the face of danger. The photograph is a testament to the enduring power of visual storytelling, capturing a moment in history that continues to resonate with audiences today. The identity of the photographer remains unknown, but their work serves as a poignant reminder of the experiences of the soldiers who lived through the horrors of the First World War.
