EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Russia War Pictures - Women, 1917," showcases a powerful moment in history as Russian women work tirelessly on the railway during the First World War. The image, taken by an unknown photographer, is part of the Harris Ewing Collection in the Library of Congress. The photograph features a group of women, their faces etched with determination and focus, as they laboriously work on the railway tracks. The woman in the center of the image, with her bare feet, stands out among her colleagues. She wears a simple headscarf, a common piece of headgear for women during that time, and holds a spade in her hands. The steam locomotive in the background adds to the industrial setting of the scene, emphasizing the importance of transportation during wartime. The women's bodies, positioned in various poses, illustrate the physical demands of their work. This image provides a poignant glimpse into the lives of civilians during the First World War, highlighting their resilience and contribution to the war effort. The photograph, a glass negative, is a testament to the heritage art of the 20th century and serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made during times of conflict. The image is a valuable addition to any collection, historical or artistic, and is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of Russia, the First World War, or the role of women during wartime.
