EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the ruins of Exermont, a small northern French village devastated by the ravages of war, American troops found solace and respite within the hallowed walls of a local church. In this evocative photograph, taken in 1918, a group of weary soldiers are seen gathered around a harmonium, a portable keyboard instrument, as they play hymns and songs, their helmets resting on the pews beside them. The interior of the church is a poignant tableau of destruction and renewal. The once ornate Doric pillars, now cracked and crumbling, stand as silent sentinels amidst the rubble. A shattered stained-glass window casts a kaleidoscope of colors across the nave, illuminating the scene. In the foreground, a statue of the Madonna and Child gazes down upon the scene, her serene expression a stark contrast to the chaos and turmoil outside. The soldiers, their faces etched with the lines of fatigue and worry, seem to find a moment of peace and connection in their shared musical endeavor. The haunting melody of their hymns echoes through the ruined walls, a poignant reminder of the humanity and resilience that endured even in the darkest days of war. This poignant image, captured in the final year of the First World War, is a testament to the enduring power of music and the indomitable spirit of those who fought and survived.
