German Troops Occupying the City of Liege, 1915 - A Glimpse into Occupation and Defiance
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a significant moment in history during World War I. Taken in 1915, it showcases German troops occupying the city of Liege while the forts still thundered defiance against their advance. The attack on Liege began on August 5,1914, lasting until August 16 when the last fort surrendered. In this image from "The War Illustrated Album De Luxe - Volume I" edited by J. A. Hammerton, we witness a scene filled with tension and contrast. Amidst the occupied territory, a group of German soldiers is seen patrolling the streets alongside local people who appear to be going about their daily lives under occupation. A man is depicted kicking a dog-drawn handcart nearby, symbolizing both cruelty and disturbance caused by war's presence. This powerful visual juxtaposition highlights not only the military occupation but also hints at looting and plundering that often accompany such situations. The photograph offers us an insight into life during wartime as well as showcasing resilience among those living within these challenging circumstances. It serves as a reminder of both human strength and vulnerability amidst conflict. As we observe this historical snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by countless individuals caught up in global conflicts throughout history – their stories forever imprinted upon our collective memory.
