EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant print from the Hulton Archive, we are transported back to the heart of World War I in Berlin, circa 1916. The image captures a significant moment on the home front as a large group of civilians gather outside the Prussian Military Academy. Men and women alike can be seen scanning intently through long lists posted on the walls - casualty lists that bear witness to the devastating toll of war. The atmosphere is somber yet determined, with individuals dressed in their everyday attire, reflecting their civilian status. Their faces reveal a mix of hope and fear as they search for familiar names among those who have made sacrifices for their country. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of how war affects not only those directly involved but also entire communities left behind. It showcases the resilience and unity displayed by ordinary people during extraordinary times. The choice to present this historical moment in black and white adds depth and timelessness to the scene, emphasizing its significance within our collective memory. As we observe these men and women reading through each line with great care, we cannot help but feel connected to their emotions – an enduring testament to humanity's capacity for empathy even amidst chaos.
