EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historic map of the border between Russia and Turkey during the First World War, dating back to around 1920. The creator remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to this intriguing piece. The map itself serves as a visual representation of Turkey's ill-fated advance in the Caucasus region and its subsequent invasion of Persia between December 1914 and January 1915. Originally featured in "The Great World War - A History". Volume II, edited by Frank A Mumby, this print offers a glimpse into the geopolitical landscape of that era. It highlights key geographical features such as Lake Van and Mosul Ninawa in Iraq, while also illustrating the strategic positions held by both Russian and Turkish forces along the border. As we delve into this historical artifact, it becomes evident that it not only depicts a specific moment in time but also symbolizes the larger context of warfare during World War I. This image transports us back to an era when nations were locked in conflict over territorial disputes and power struggles across Central Asia. Preserved by The Print Collector from Keystone Archives, this photograph reminds us of how maps can serve as powerful tools for understanding history. It invites viewers to reflect on the consequences faced by countries involved in war while appreciating their efforts to navigate complex landscapes amidst chaos.
