Hoch the Kaiser! - Cheering Crowds in the Streets, Berlin, Germany, 4 August 1914
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a momentous event in history that marked the beginning of a devastating conflict. Taken on 4th August 1914 in Berlin, Germany, it showcases the enthusiastic crowds lining Unter den Linden Avenue as they cheer for their beloved Kaisers. The two towering figures at the center of this image are Wilhelm II of Germany and Franz Josef of Austria. Carried triumphantly through the streets after Wilhelm's proclamation of war against Britain, these pictures symbolize unity and national pride during a time filled with fervor and anticipation. Dressed in their finest attire, men donning hats and straw boaters fill every inch of available space along the road. Placards held high proclaiming support for war demonstrate their unwavering loyalty to their country. The atmosphere is electric with enthusiasm as people rally together to show solidarity with their leaders. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of how political events can ignite strong emotions within a nation. It encapsulates both hope and uncertainty that characterized this era while also highlighting the power that leaders hold over public sentiment. Preserved from "The Pageant of the Century" by Odhams Press Ltd in 1933, this image transports us back to one pivotal moment when cheers echoed through Berlin's streets before tragedy unfolded on an unprecedented scale—the First World War began.
