EDITORS COMMENTS
Water for man and beast: a typical scene in Salonika, 1914-19 (litho) captures the essence of life during World War I. This print by the English School from the 20th century showcases an everyday occurrence in Salonika, now known as Thessaloniki, Greece. In this bustling town square, soldiers and civilians alike gather around a watering trough to quench their thirst. Horses stand patiently beside them, eagerly awaiting their turn to drink. The presence of both men and animals highlights the shared struggle for survival amidst the chaos of war. A waterseller wearing a traditional fez hat can be seen pouring water into cups for those who line up before him. His role as a provider of refreshment becomes crucial in such challenging times when access to basic necessities is limited. The image not only depicts physical nourishment but also symbolizes unity and resilience in the face of adversity. Despite being caught up in one of history's most devastating conflicts, these individuals find solace and strength through simple acts like sharing a drink together. This lithograph serves as a poignant reminder that even during times of war, humanity persists with its innate desire for connection and sustenance. It offers us a glimpse into an era long gone while reminding us of our collective ability to endure.
