EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of daily life in Bosnia & Herzegovina during the tumultuous period of World War One. At the heart of the scene, a heavily-laden donkey, its flanks adorned with tall wicker panniers, plods along the cobblestone street. The donkey's burden is a testament to the physical labor required to keep markets functioning amidst the chaos of war. In the foreground, a German soldier, clad in his distinctive World War One uniform, stands amidst the bustling activity of the market. His expression is one of curiosity and perhaps even a hint of longing as he observes the vibrant scene before him. The soldier's sword and cutlass are slung over his shoulder, reminding us of the conflict that has brought him to this place. The market stall, brimming with onions and garlic, adds a splash of color to the monochrome image. The seller, his face obscured by the wicket of his stall, deftly strings up more onions, seemingly unfazed by the soldier's presence. The mule, tethered nearby, adds to the sense of industry and commerce that continues, despite the backdrop of war. This historical photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, revealing the resilience and adaptability of people in the face of adversity. It is a poignant reminder of the human spirit, which endures even in the most challenging of circumstances.
