Le Recit (Noyon, mars 1917)
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a poignant and powerful image captured by French photographer Francois Flameng during the aftermath of the First World War. The photograph, taken in the town of Noyon in the Oise region of Picardy, France, in March 1917, depicts a moment of relief and gratitude as soldiers retreating from the Western Front come across a group of crying children and an elderly woman. The scene is set against the backdrop of a war-torn town, with damaged buildings and debris scattered throughout the frame. The soldiers, weary and battle-scarred, are seen in the foreground, their expressions a mix of exhaustion and relief as they take in the sight of the villagers they have liberated. The children, dressed in ragged clothing, are in a state of distress, their tears streaming down their faces as they cling to their mothers and other women in the crowd. The elderly woman, her face etched with lines of worry and age, looks on with a mixture of sadness and relief. The use of color in the photograph adds to its emotional impact, with the vibrant reds and greens of the soldiers' uniforms contrasting sharply with the muted tones of the damaged town and the somber expressions of the villagers. The concept of conflict and its aftermath is beautifully captured in this image, with the relief and gratitude of the villagers palpable in their body language and expressions. This photograph was first published in the French magazine L'Illustration in 1924 as part of the album "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 1." It remains a powerful reminder of the human cost of war and the importance of peace and reconciliation. The print, now a valuable historical artifact, continues to resonate with audiences around the world, serving as a testament to the enduring power of photography to capture and preserve the complexities of human emotion and experience.
