EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the haunting landscapes of Poelcapelle, Flanders, Belgium during the tumultuous years of World War I. Captured on a glass plate stereoview image, this snapshot offers a glimpse into the harsh realities faced by soldiers and civilians alike in the early 20th century. The desolate railway tracks stretching across the barren land symbolize both hope and despair. As trains transported troops and supplies to the front lines, they also carried with them an air of uncertainty and fear. The unknown photographer skillfully captures this juxtaposition, leaving us pondering about the countless stories hidden within these tracks. Poelcapelle's significance as a location ravaged by war is palpable in every inch of this monochrome print. The stark contrast between light and shadow adds depth to its composition, emphasizing the scars left behind by conflict. As we gaze upon this historical artifact from World War I, we are reminded of humanity's capacity for resilience amidst unimaginable adversity. It serves as a poignant reminder that even in times of darkness, there is always room for compassion and unity. Let us cherish these remnants from our past as reminders of our collective history; may they serve as catalysts for reflection and understanding in our present day world.
