EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the Customs Room at the Gare du Nord in Paris during the tumultuous year of 1914. Serving as a relief station for French refugees, this location became a sanctuary for those seeking solace amidst the chaos of war. The image portrays a diverse group of individuals - men, women, and children - all united by their shared experience of displacement. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see people dressed in various attires that reflect their different backgrounds and social statuses. A nurse stands prominently in her uniform, symbolizing hope and care amid adversity. The room is filled with straw on which weary travelers rest, finding temporary respite from their arduous journeys. The monochrome tones add an air of solemnity to the scene while emphasizing the raw emotions etched on each face present. It serves as a poignant reminder of the profound impact that war has on ordinary civilians caught up in its relentless grip. Published within "The Manchester Guardian History of the War - 1914" this print captures not only a moment but also tells a larger story about human resilience and compassion during times of crisis. As we gaze upon these faces from over a century ago, we are reminded that even amidst turmoil, there is always room for empathy and unity.
