Les Fetes de la Victoire a New-York; Les Herauts d'Armes de la 1st Division Americaine
EDITORS COMMENTS
(The Victory Celebrations in New York; The Standard-Bearers of the 1st American Division), 1919, is an evocative photograph capturing the jubilant atmosphere of the post-World War I victory parade in Manhattan, New York. The image, published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, Paris, 1924, features a procession of soldiers from the 1st Division of the United States Army, riding on horseback and carrying their division's placards. The scene unfolds on a bustling Manhattan street, where the crowds have gathered to honor the victorious soldiers as they pass by. The men, dressed in their military uniforms, proudly display their division's insignia, their faces reflecting a mix of relief, pride, and excitement. Horses, their coats glistening with sweat, stand patiently beside their riders, their ears pricked, seemingly aware of the historic moment. The photograph captures the essence of the 1910s, a time of transition from war to peace, and the unity of the Allied forces in their common victory against the Central Powers. The image is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War and the triumphant spirit that followed. The photograph's creator remains unknown, but the image is a valuable historical document, offering a glimpse into the postwar celebrations in the United States and the role of the 1st Division in the Allied victory. The photograph's timeless composition and powerful imagery continue to resonate with viewers, making it a cherished piece of history for collectors and historians alike.
