EDITORS COMMENTS
(Returns to Evian; listening to the 'Marseillaise', they sing, they cry, they pray....!) is a poignant lithograph created by French artist J. Simont in 1917. This powerful image captures the emotional moment of homecoming for civilians during the First World War. Evian-les-Bains, located in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France, serves as the backdrop for this poignant scene. The people in the image, a mix of men and women, young and old, stand together, united in their patriotism and joy. Some sing along to the national anthem, their faces filled with happiness and relief, while others weep with emotion. A man plays the vocalist, leading the crowd in song. The title of the print, 'Rapatries a Evian', refers to the repatriation of civilians who had been displaced during the war. The image captures the profound impact of the 'Marseillaise', the French national anthem, on the returning population. The image, taken from 'L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2' published by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924, is a testament to the power of music and the human spirit during wartime. The image is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War and the joy and relief felt by those who were able to return home. The crowd's collective emotion is palpable, as they sing, cry, and pray together, creating a moment of unity and hope in the midst of the chaos of war.
