EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Boys from Artemid, Armenia, 1922" captures a powerful moment in history. The image showcases a group of young boys who have embarked on a challenging journey from Artemid to Van in search of guns during the tumultuous times of war. The direct gaze and full-length composition of these brave boys standing to attention evoke a sense of determination and resilience. Their presence symbolizes the indomitable spirit that often emerges amidst conflict and adversity. Photographed by Maynard Owen Williams, this snapshot offers us a glimpse into the lives of Armenian children caught up in the chaos of warfare. It serves as a poignant reminder of the impact war has on innocent lives, especially those forced to confront its harsh realities at such tender ages. Published in volume I: Abyssinia to the British Empire edited by JA Hammerton and released by the Educational Book Company (London) in 1922, this photograph is not just an artistic representation but also an important historical document. It sheds light on the struggles faced by people living through turbulent times while emphasizing their unwavering courage. Maynard Owen Williams' work successfully encapsulates both the physical tolls endured by these young boys as well as their metaphorical role as symbols for resilience amidst conflict. This monochrome print stands as testament to their bravery and serves as a stark reminder that even amid darkness, hope can still shine through.
