EDITORS COMMENTS
a poignant collection of 20 postcards published by LEGIA, offers a unique perspective on the historical significance of Ypres, Belgium, before and after the devastation of World War I. This commemorative art set invites viewers to reflect on the profound impact of the 1st Great Military Conflict on this once-thriving European city. Each postcard in the album showcases a pair of images: one depicting Ypres as it appeared prior to the war, and the other revealing the topographical transformations that occurred in its aftermath. The juxtaposition of these images serves as a powerful reminder of the destruction and loss inflicted during the conflict. The postcards in this set, entitled "Album-Vues," were published by LEGIA, a company that specializes in historical and artistic prints. The images, which are part of the commemorative art genre, offer a glimpse into the rich history of Ypres and the indelible mark left by the events of World War I. The collection includes various scenes of the city, such as its historic market square, its iconic Cloth Hall, and its picturesque streets. The pre-war images evoke a sense of tranquility and prosperity, while the post-war images reveal the devastation wrought by the war. The destruction of buildings, the desolation of landscapes, and the absence of people in the post-war images serve as stark reminders of the human cost of war. This set of 20 postcards, bound together in a booklet, offers a poignant and thought-provoking exploration of the history of Ypres and the enduring impact of World War I on the city and its people. The images in "Album-Vues - Ypres: Avant et Apres la Guerre" serve as a testament to the power of historical art to preserve and commemorate the past.
