EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black-and-white photograph captures the poignant moment of unity and new beginnings in the heart of Berlin, Germany, at the end of the Second World War. Soldiers in uniform, likely from the Allied forces, are seen interacting with curious and joyful children in the aftermath of the conflict. The scene is set against the backdrop of a destroyed cityscape, with the remnants of war evident in the rubble and debris. A sign in the foreground reads, "This Axis has been laid from El Alamein to Berlin via Africa, Italy, France, Belgium, Holland, Germany," listing the places that had been traversed during the long and arduous journey from the North African campaign to the heart of Europe. The places named on the sign include significant battle sites such as El Alamein in Egypt, Tobruk and Benghazi in Libya, Tripoli and Tunis in Tunisia, Salerno and Naples in Italy, Volturno in Italy, Normandy in France, and Roubaix, Oudenarde, Ghent, Malines, Eindhoven, Tilburg, Maas, Rhine, Ahaus, Sulingen, Nienburg, Soltau, and Hamburg in Germany. The photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made during the war and the eventual triumph of the Allied forces. The image of soldiers and children coming together in the midst of destruction symbolizes the hope for a peaceful and prosperous future. This photograph, taken in 1945, is a poignant snapshot of history that captures the spirit of the 1940s and the end of the Second World War.
