EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative vintage lantern slide depicts the poignant moment of German soldiers surrendering at Pilken during the First World War. The image captures the raw emotion and tension of the battlefield as the defeated soldiers raise their hands in surrender, while their weary and determined foes stand firm. The rugged terrain of Pilken, a hill in Belgium, is etched with the scars of battle, as the remnants of the once grand landscape are now marred by the destruction of war. The soldiers, dressed in their tattered and mud-splattered uniforms, embody the harsh realities of the conflict that raged across Europe from 1914 to 1918. The lantern slide, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a unique glimpse into history, providing a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during this pivotal period in human history. The image is a powerful testament to the human spirit and the enduring power of hope and resilience in the face of adversity.
