EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the tumultuous era of World War One, specifically to central Brussels in August 1914. The image captures a scene of resistance and conflict as a street barricade made from sacks and bricks is strategically set across one of the approach roads. This makeshift roadblock serves as a poignant symbol of defiance against the backdrop of war. The composition showcases an intricate balance between chaos and order. The carefully arranged sandbags provide stability, while the scattered bricks hint at the destruction that has already unfolded on this very street. A cart parked nearby adds an element of everyday life disrupted by wartime circumstances. Photographer Ivor Castle skillfully captures not only the physicality but also the atmosphere surrounding this barricade. There is a sense of tension in the air, as if every passerby must navigate their way through uncertainty and danger. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, we are reminded of how ordinary people were thrust into extraordinary circumstances during World War One. Their resourcefulness shines through in these humble materials used to construct such an effective barrier. This photograph from Memory Lane Prints transports us back in time, allowing us to reflect on both the resilience and devastation experienced during this significant chapter in history.
