"Bearers of History: From Ancient Rome to World Wars" Step into the past and witness the silent tales told by bearers throughout history. In the shadows of World War I, their silhouettes stood tall against a backdrop of chaos, representing resilience in the face of adversity. Wounded soldiers found solace in their care, as they tended to broken bodies and shattered spirits. Travel further back in time to ancient Rome, where bearers donned majestic costumes fit for emperors. Like Julius Caesar crossing the Rubicon, these bearers carried with them an air of authority and power. Fast forward to King George V's Silver Jubilee celebrations in 1935 - a momentous occasion captured on an ILN cover. Bearers proudly displayed symbols of honor and loyalty amidst a jubilant crowd. The Battle of Crecy echoes through centuries past; its details etched onto pages from Froissart's chronicles. A bearer emerges from this medieval scene, embodying courage amidst chaos. In more recent times, Queen Elizabeth II gracefully accepts the Honours of Scotland - bestowed upon her by loyal subjects who understand her role as a symbolic bearer of tradition and unity. From artistry to symbolism, Greek sculptor Polykleitos' Doryphoros stands tall as a timeless representation of strength embodied by spear-bearers throughout history. Journeying through Siena's Contrada districts reveals diverse identities personified by animal symbols like Giraffa (Giraffe), Oca (Goose), and Drago (Dragon). These bearers carry not only physical representations but also cultural heritage passed down through generations. The Fall of Petersburg during America's Civil War witnessed brave souls fighting on both sides. Amidst smoke-filled battlefields, bearers emerged as beacons of hope – offering aid and comfort amid turmoil that tore nations apart. Lastly, we revisit another chapter from America's tumultuous history - the Second Battle of Bull Run.
