EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the mass exodus of inhabitants of Antwerp, Belgium, during the early days of World War I in October 1914. The city, located along the River Scheldt, had become a focal point of intense conflict between Allied and German forces. With the imminent threat of invasion and the looming danger of destruction, the populace was urged to evacuate the city and seek refuge in neighboring countries. The image shows a long line of barges and boats filled with desperate citizens, many clinging to the sides for dear life as they make their way down the river. The flames and smoke rising from the distant cityscape add a sense of urgency and desperation to the scene. The spire and rooftops of Antwerp's iconic buildings can be seen in the background, a poignant reminder of the lives and homes being left behind. The Exodus from Antwerp was a harrowing experience for the citizens involved, with many facing treacherous conditions on the water and the uncertainty of an uncertain future. The photograph serves as a powerful testament to the human spirit and resilience in the face of war and adversity.
