EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the profound impact of World War I on soldiers and the remarkable work done by Anna Coleman Ladd of the American Red Cross. The top row displays casts taken from soldiers' mutilated faces, a haunting reminder of the devastating injuries they endured during battle. In stark contrast, the bottom row showcases masks meticulously crafted by Ladd using pre-war photographs, revealing their faces as they were before their disfigurement. The table in the photograph holds additional masks designed to fit over specific areas of facial mutilation, providing hope for these brave individuals to regain some semblance of normalcy. Each mask represents not only a physical prosthesis but also a symbol of resilience and restoration amidst unimaginable trauma. Dating back to 1918, this artifact serves as a poignant testament to both the horrors faced by soldiers during World War I and the compassion shown by individuals like Anna Coleman Ladd. Through her skillful artistry and dedication, she sought to alleviate some of their suffering while honoring their individuality. As we reflect upon this image today, let us remember those who sacrificed so much for our freedom and recognize that even in times of darkness, there are always rays of light shining through thanks to acts of kindness and humanity such as those exemplified by Anna Coleman Ladd's work with masks.
