EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant print captures a moment in history during World War I, as the first of the wounded soldiers are seen being invalided for wounds back to Britain at the French port of Le Havre. The image is a stark reminder of the sacrifices made by these brave men who fought for their country.
The soldiers on stretchers, accompanied by bearers and medical personnel, symbolize the human cost of war and the physical toll it takes on those who serve. The red cross emblem on their uniforms serves as a beacon of hope and healing amidst the chaos and destruction of battle.
As they make their way back to Britain, these soldiers carry with them not only physical wounds but also emotional scars that will stay with them long after the war has ended. Their journey home is a testament to their resilience and courage in the face of adversity.
This photograph from "The Pageant of the Century" published in 1934 captures a pivotal moment in history that should never be forgotten. It serves as a powerful reminder of the impact war has on individuals and communities, urging us to strive for peace and understanding in our world today.
