EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the poignant moment when two esteemed generals, Dwight D. Eisenhower and Courtney H. H. Vaughn, paid their respects at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Paris on August 25, 1944. The image is taken from a collection of postcard-sized photographs issued to commemorate the Liberation of Paris, which took place between August 19th and 26th, 1944. General Dwight D. Eisenhower, the Supreme Allied Commander in Europe during World War II, stands with his back to the Tomb, his hands clasped behind him as he gazes out over the crowd. To his left, General Courtney H. H. Vaughn, the Commanding General of the First United States Army, places a wreath at the foot of the monument. The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, located in the Arc de Triomphe, was a symbol of the sacrifices made by the brave men and women who fought and died for the liberation of Paris from the Nazi occupation. The Liberation of Paris was a significant turning point in the European theater of World War II. The city, which had been under German control since June 14, 1940, was finally freed from the grip of the Nazi regime. The liberation was a cause for great celebration, and the people of Paris poured into the streets to express their joy and relief. This photograph is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by the Allied forces during World War II and the importance of the Liberation of Paris in the larger context of the war. It is a poignant and moving image that captures the solemnity and gravity of the moment, as well as the hope and determination that marked the end of the occupation.
