EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful lithograph captures the intense emotions of a wounded soldier in a hospital during World War I. The soldier's angry reaction is evident as he confronts Empress Augusta Victoria, who has come to visit him. The image portrays the bitterness and resentment felt by many soldiers towards those in power who sent them to war. The soldier's face is contorted with rage, his eyes filled with accusation and blame. His wounded limb serves as a physical representation of the sacrifices made on the battlefield. In contrast, Empress Augusta Victoria appears shocked and taken aback by his furious response. The scene highlights not only the physical toll of war but also its psychological impact on those involved. It exposes the stark divide between royalty and common soldiers, emphasizing their vastly different experiences during this tumultuous time. This lithograph was published in Le Petit Journal in 1915 as part of a series called "Les souverains maudits" (The Cursed Sovereigns), which aimed to depict various aspects of World War I. It serves as both propaganda and an honest portrayal of the harsh realities faced by soldiers fighting for their countries. Through this print, artist Louis Charles Bombled captures a moment that encapsulates the anger, frustration, and disillusionment experienced by countless individuals affected by war. It stands as a poignant reminder of the human cost behind conflicts fought on such grand scales.
