EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant print captured by George Mewes, we witness the harrowing aftermath of a chemical attack on Russian soldiers during World War One. The image showcases a group of brave soldiers suffering the effects of poison gas, being tenderly cared for by members of the Russian Red Cross near the front line trenches in August 1915. The scene is a testament to both the horrors and humanity that unfolded on the Eastern Front during this tumultuous period. Despite facing unimaginable pain and distress, these resilient soldiers find solace in the compassionate hands of their fellow countrymen who tirelessly provide first aid and medical assistance. Dressed in their worn uniforms, these warriors bear visible scars from battle while seeking refuge at this makeshift field hospital. Their expressions reveal not only physical agony but also an unwavering determination to survive amidst such devastating circumstances. This photograph serves as a stark reminder of the immense sacrifices made by countless individuals during World War One. It captures not only the brutality unleashed by new weapons like poisonous gas but also highlights how acts of kindness and compassion can shine through even in times of darkness. George Mewes' powerful image encapsulates both tragedy and hope, immortalizing this momentous chapter in history forever etched into our collective memory.
