EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from 1963, a group of earnest young boys are seen working diligently at a Communist Youth labour camp in the former Yugoslavia. The scene unfolds along the banks of a river, where the boys are engaged in a project to improve the land and waterway. Their faces are focused and determined as they wield spades and wheelbarrows, digging into the soil and transporting the earth to build up the riverbank. The boys are dressed in simple, practical clothing, reflecting the manual nature of their labour. The summer sun casts a warm glow over the scene, adding a sense of idyllic innocence to the image. Yet, the context of their activity is not lost on the viewer - these boys are part of a larger collective effort, a team working together towards a common goal under the banner of Communist Youth. The photograph captures a moment in time when the ideals of hard work, teamwork, and dedication to the community were instilled in the next generation. The image is a poignant reminder of the social and political climate of the time, and the importance of collective action in shaping the future. The boys' youthful energy and enthusiasm are palpable, making for a compelling and thought-provoking visual narrative.
