EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print titled "Down with cowards! Down with traitors!" captures a moment of intense emotion and condemnation in early 20th century France. The image depicts the populace of an Alsacian village hurling abuse at two French Army deserters who crossed the border into Germany. The villagers, disgusted by their actions, express their anger and patriotism through shouts of condemnation. Published as an illustration for Le Petit Journal on February 2nd, 1908, this color lithograph showcases the deep-rooted sentiments surrounding cowardice and treason during that time period. It serves as a reminder of the strong sense of duty and loyalty to one's country prevalent in European societies. The photograph not only highlights the soldiers' act of desertion but also reflects broader themes such as national identity, military honor, and societal expectations. The villagers' fury towards these deserters reveals their commitment to defending their homeland against any perceived betrayal. Through this image, we witness a snapshot capturing raw human emotions - anger, rage, bitterness - all fueled by a profound sense of patriotism. It reminds us that even within communities there can be divisions when it comes to matters related to war and loyalty. This thought-provoking artwork from Bridgeman Images invites viewers to reflect upon historical events while contemplating universal themes such as courage versus cowardice and loyalty versus treason.
