EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a poignant moment in history, showcasing the Polish miners from l'Escarpelle and their families being expelled from France following communist troubles. Taken on 2nd September 1934, this coloured engraving by Eugene Damblans portrays the heart-wrenching scene of deportation during the thirties. In this image, we witness the devastating consequences of political unrest as these hardworking immigrants are forced to leave behind everything they have known. The expressions etched on their faces reveal a mixture of sadness, uncertainty, and resilience in the face of adversity. Amongst them are children who innocently bear witness to their parents' struggle for survival. Their innocent eyes reflect both confusion and fear as they bid farewell to their homeland and embark on an uncertain journey into exile. This engraving serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by foreign laborers seeking better opportunities but ultimately falling victim to political turmoil. It highlights not only the economic hardships faced by these workers but also sheds light on the human cost associated with listening to Communist agitators. As we gaze upon this powerful image, let us remember those who have endured such trials throughout history. May it inspire us to foster empathy and understanding towards all individuals striving for a better life for themselves and their families amidst challenging circumstances.
