EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling market place in Lemberg during October 1914. The image showcases a group of resilient peasant women, adorned with headscarves and shawls, as they proudly display their wares for sale. In the backdrop of this snapshot from history, we can sense the tension and conflict that permeated the region during World War One. The scene is filled with an array of baskets overflowing with produce and handmade goods, each item representing a story of survival amidst chaos. These determined women navigate through their daily lives despite being caught up in the turmoil caused by war. Their strength shines through as they continue to provide for themselves and their families against all odds. As we gaze at this photograph, we are reminded of the Eastern Front's significance during this tumultuous period. Lemberg, located within what was once known as the Soviet Union or USSR, witnessed firsthand the impact of Russian army movements and battles fought on its doorstep. George Mewes has masterfully captured not only a moment frozen in time but also a testament to resilience and perseverance. This print serves as a poignant reminder of how ordinary individuals were affected by global conflicts like World War One – yet managed to find hope amidst despair within their local communities.
