EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a poignant moment during the tumultuous year of 1917 in Russia, as a group of blind soldiers, guided by a compassionate nurse, participate in a patriotic counter-demonstration in Petrograd (now Saint Petersburg). The scene unfolds against the backdrop of the ongoing First World War and the Russian Revolution, a time of great upheaval and change. The soldiers, their faces obscured by bandages, march proudly with banners bearing the slogans "War until complete victory! Long live freedom!" as they make their way through the city. The image is taken from "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" published by L'Illustration, a French magazine, in 1924. The photograph is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by the disabled during wartime and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity. The black and white image, with its stark contrasts and somber tone, transports us back to a pivotal moment in history, as Russia teetered on the brink of revolution and the fate of the country hung in the balance.
