EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful image captures the intensity of the Chrisp Street anti-German riots that erupted in the East End of London in 1915, following the sinking of the Lusitania by a German U-boat. The photograph shows a chaotic scene outside A. Schoenfeld's tobacco and cigar store, with a determined crowd of youths and children attempting to force their way in. The shop, identified by the "Schoenfeld" sign above the door, was mistakenly believed to be German-owned, making it a target for the angry mob. The riots, fueled by anti-German sentiment and the tragic loss of life during the Lusitania disaster, saw numerous shops and businesses targeted and looted. In this photograph, the police, represented by the uniformed figures in the background, struggle to maintain order amidst the chaos. The image is a poignant reminder of the ethnic tensions and social unrest that marked this period in history. The children, some as young as infants, are caught up in the frenzy, adding an unsettling element to the scene. The photograph offers a glimpse into the raw emotions and turbulent times that defined the early 20th century, making it an important historical document.
