EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative postcard image, hailing from the historic year of 1916 during World War I, showcases a captivating view of Lausanne, Switzerland, nestled at the foot of the majestic Alps. The serene landscape is juxtaposed with the international significance of the scene, as various country shields adorn the bottom of the postcard, a testament to the global reach of the events unfolding during that time. At the center of it all, a compassionate nurse stands firmly on the Swiss flag, her uniform adorned with the emblem of the International Red Cross. With an open and heartfelt appeal, she reaches out to humanity, embodying the humanitarian spirit that transcended the borders of war-torn Europe. The Red Cross, a symbol of neutrality and care, played a crucial role during this period, providing aid to the wounded and displaced regardless of nationality or allegiance. This poignant image encapsulates the essence of unity, compassion, and resilience during a time when the world needed it most.
