EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in history, depicting the Bulgarian Bishops of Macedonia being chased away from their diocese by Serbs in 1913. Taken by an anonymous French photographer during the 20th century, this powerful image is now part of the collection at Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France. The photo showcases a group portrait of these Bulgarian bishops who were forced to flee due to religious persecution and oppression. The men stand together with solemn expressions on their faces, their long beards symbolizing their Orthodox faith. This snapshot serves as a reminder of the turbulent times during the Second Balkan War when Bulgaria was fighting against Serbia. The composition highlights not only the individual suffering experienced by these bishops but also represents a larger struggle for power and control over Macedonia. The annexation attempts made by Serbia are evident through this forceful expulsion of religious leaders from their rightful positions. As we observe this historical print, it is essential to reflect upon the significance of religious freedom and tolerance. It reminds us that throughout history, many have endured persecution due to their beliefs or affiliations. This image invites viewers to delve into its narrative and contemplate how such events have shaped our world today.
