EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the First World War era captures a moment of dreamlike reverie amidst the chaos of conflict. The postcard shows a woman lost in thought, her gaze fixed on an alpine hunter in her imagination. In the midst of war-torn France in 1916, this image offers a glimpse into the inner world of a dreamer seeking solace and escape from the harsh realities of battle.
The woman's expression is one of longing and nostalgia, perhaps yearning for a simpler time before the devastation of war swept across Europe. The alpine hunter symbolizes strength, resilience, and freedom - qualities that were undoubtedly cherished during such tumultuous times.
As she holds onto a cane with determination and grace, it is clear that this woman embodies both patriotism and love for her country. Her dreamy gaze reflects not only her own desires but also those of countless others who sought refuge in their imaginations during this dark period in history.
Through this poignant image, we are reminded of the power of dreams to transport us to another world - even when surrounded by turmoil and uncertainty. It serves as a testament to the human spirit's capacity for hope and resilience in the face of adversity.
