EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a unique moment of celebration amidst the chaos and destruction of World War I. In 1916, French soldiers who were metalworkers before the war gather together at the front to honor their patron saint, St Eloi. The image showcases a group of soldiers in uniform, surrounded by an industrial forge and smithy. Despite being in the midst of battle on the Western Front, these brave men take a break from their military duties to commemorate this important feast day. With drinks in hand, they raise their glasses in camaraderie and defiance against the horrors that surround them. The scene is filled with both solemnity and joy as these soldiers find solace in each other's company during such trying times. It serves as a reminder that even amid war's devastation, humanity finds ways to celebrate life and hold onto traditions. This photograph not only highlights the resilience of these French soldiers but also sheds light on their pre-war occupations as metalworkers. Their expertise with forges and anvils now takes on new meaning as they fight for their country's freedom. As we gaze upon this color litho print by Eugene Damblans from 1916, we are transported back in time to witness this poignant moment where celebration meets conflict - an enduring testament to human spirit amidst adversity.
