EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time from the early days of the First World War, as the people of Vienna, Austria gathered in the streets to celebrate the alliance between their country and Germany. The scene is filled with a sense of excitement and optimism, as men of all ages, dressed in their finest hats and clothing, hold up large portraits of their emperors, Kaiser Franz Josef I of Austria and Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany. The portraits, adorned with garlands of flowers and ribbons, are proudly displayed for all to see, symbolizing the unity and strength of the Austro-Hungarian and German empires. The smiles on the faces of the demonstrators reflect their belief in the greatness of their leaders and their confidence in the future. The photograph offers a glimpse into the war time spirit of the Austrian people, as they came together to mark the start of the war that would change the course of history. This street scene, captured by Robert Hunt in 1914, is a poignant reminder of the hope and determination that once filled the hearts of people as they looked towards the future, unaware of the challenges and hardships that lay ahead.
