EDITORS COMMENTS
Andre Galland's poignant lithograph, "Les Indesirables; Immobilisee par ses excedents de bagages devant le pont de Kehl," captures the harsh realities of post-World War I Europe in this evocative image. Created in 1918 and published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919" by L'Illustration, Paris in 1924, this print depicts a group of weary and displaced individuals, mostly women and children, seated on the ground with an overwhelming amount of luggage and belongings beside them. The bridge in the background, connecting Kehl in Germany and Freiburg in Baden-Württemberg, Germany, to Strasbourg in Alsace, France, symbolizes the border between the old and the new, the familiar and the unknown. The title "Les Indesirables" translates to "The Undesirables," and the scene portrays the plight of refugees and deportees, likely from Alsace-Lorraine, which was a disputed region between France and Germany throughout history. The individuals in the print appear to be leaving their homeland, possibly due to the Treaty of Versailles or other post-war political upheavals. Their heavy baggage and the somber expressions on their faces convey the emotional and physical burden of their journey. Andre Galland masterfully captures the mood of the moment, encapsulating the essence of a transitional period in European history. The print is a powerful reminder of the human cost of war and the resilience of those who endured it. The image is a valuable historical document, providing insight into the experiences of those who were uprooted from their homes and forced to start anew in a foreign land.
