EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "At Close Quarters in the Mountains" takes us back to the tumultuous era of World War I. The illustration, originally featured in Told in the Huts: The YMCA Gift Book published in 1916, showcases a gripping scene of hand-to-hand combat amidst rugged hills and mountains. In this intense moment frozen in time, soldiers are seen engaging fiercely with pistols and rifles, their faces etched with determination and adrenaline. Bayonets glisten menacingly as they confront each other head-on, ready to defend their positions at all costs. The atmosphere is charged with tension as gunfire echoes through the air. The image encapsulates the brutal reality faced by troops during this devastating conflict. It serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by those who fought on both sides of the battle lines. Each soldier depicted here represents countless others who endured unimaginable hardships during this first global war. As we gaze upon this historic artwork from our private collection, we are transported back to an era defined by strife and resilience. It stands as a testament to human courage and strength amidst chaos—a visual tribute to those who risked everything for their countries' causes.
