EDITORS COMMENTS
is a poignant photograph from the First World War era, captured by the skilled lens of Russian artist R. Marianovitch. The image, published in the French magazine "L'Illustration" in 1916 under the collection "Guerre IV," depicts a significant moment during the Serbian Campaign. The photograph captures a group of weary soldiers, led by an elderly man believed to be King Peter I of Serbia, as they pass the night near Guemsitch-Han, the last stop before reaching Scutari. The soldiers, huddled around a military vehicle, appear exhausted and defeated, their faces etched with the marks of war and the hardships they have endured. The image is a powerful reminder of the human cost of war and the sacrifices made by the armed forces during this pivotal period in history. The photograph, titled "The Albanian Mansion or the Old King Peter," is a poignant snapshot of the Great Retreat, a significant military operation during the First World War. The retreat saw the Serbian Army being forced to abandon its positions in Albania and Kosovo due to the advancing Austro-Hungarian and Bulgarian forces. The image is a testament to the resilience and determination of the soldiers, who continued to fight despite the odds being stacked against them. The photograph is a valuable historical document, providing a glimpse into the realities of warfare during the early 20th century. The image's timeless quality and the raw emotion it evokes make it a must-have for any collection focused on military history, the First World War, or the history of Albania and Serbia. The photograph's composition, lighting, and the use of black and white add to its visual impact, making it a standout piece in any collection.
