October 20,1924 - A Shocking Discovery in Berlin
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a significant moment in history when the Interrallied Military Control Commission stumbled upon an astonishing secret. On this fateful day, October 20,1924, hidden within the Borsig settlements of Berlin, several thousand concealed shells were unearthed. This shocking revelation sent ripples through the international community as it constituted a blatant violation of the Treaty of Versailles. The Treaty of Versailles had explicitly demanded Germany's disarmament following World War I. However, these hidden shells revealed that Germany had been secretly stockpiling weapons and defying their obligations under the treaty. The discovery left many questioning Germany's intentions and raised concerns about potential future conflicts. Illustrated by Damblans and featured in "Le Pelerin" on November 9th, 1924, this engraving brings to life the gravity of this historic event. It serves as a stark reminder of how fragile peace can be and highlights the importance of international agreements in maintaining global stability. Through Stefano Bianchetti's skilled reproduction technique, we are transported back to those tumultuous times - an era known as "the crazy years". This powerful image encapsulates not only military might but also signifies a pivotal moment where trust was shattered and diplomatic tensions escalated. As we gaze upon this artwork today, let us remember its significance - reminding us to learn from history's mistakes and strive for lasting peace among nations.
