EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the Graeco-Turkish War, specifically scenes at Volo in Thessaly. The engraving, created by William Heysham Overend, takes us back to a significant moment in history. Remnants of military presence can be seen standing tall amidst a backdrop of rugged countryside and line formations. The image transports us to a railway station where country people gather, their faces reflecting both curiosity and apprehension. It is evident that this war has deeply affected the lives of those living in Volo. The scene exudes an air of tension as locals witness the aftermath and consequences of conflict. The Greco-Turkish War was marked by intense battles between Greece and Turkey for control over Thessaly, with Volo being one of the key strategic locations. This engraving serves as a visual testament to the struggles endured during this period. Published in The Illustrated London News on April 24th, 1897, W. H. Overend's illustration brings attention to this historic event through its meticulous details and evocative composition. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded not only of the ravages of war but also the resilience and strength displayed by both sides involved. This print offers viewers a glimpse into an important chapter in Greek-Turkish relations while honoring those who lived through it.
