Du Bosphore a L'Adriatique; Factionnaires italiens de garde a l'amphitheatre romain de Pola, 1918
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph that transports us back in time to the aftermath of the First World War. The image, taken from "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" published by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924, depicts a group of Italian soldiers standing guard at the ancient Roman amphitheatre in Pola, now known as Pula in Croatia. The ruins of the amphitheatre, a relic of the Roman Empire, stand proudly against the backdrop of a clear blue sky. The soldiers, dressed in their military uniforms, are seated and standing around the perimeter of the structure, their weapons at the ready. Their expressions are varied, some serious, some relaxed, but all are alert and focused. The photograph offers a glimpse into the occupation of the Austro-Hungarian territory by the Italian forces during the First World War. The amphitheatre, which dates back to the 1st century AD, served as a playhouse for the soldiers during their postwar garrison duties. The image captures the contrast between the ancient and the modern, the peaceful and the militaristic, and the victorious and the occupied. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the complex history of the Balkans during the 1910s and the impact of the First World War on the region. It invites us to reflect on the passage of time and the enduring power of ancient ruins to evoke a sense of wonder and awe. The photograph is a valuable historical document, a testament to the past, and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that continues to inspire us today.
