EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a poignant moment in the history of World War I as Russian Orthodox soldiers receive blessings from their priest before embarking on an offensive in June 1917. The scene takes place on the Eastern Front, where the Russian army was engaged in a desperate struggle against the Central Powers. The soldiers, dressed in their uniforms and carrying their weapons, gather around the priest as he reads passages from the Bible and sprinkles them with holy water. The expression on the faces of the soldiers ranges from solemn to hopeful, reflecting the mixed emotions of fear, duty, and faith that would have been present in the moments before going into battle. The priest, with his ceremonial vestments and cross, stands tall and resolute, offering spiritual comfort and strength to the troops. This powerful image serves as a reminder of the deep religious beliefs that sustained the soldiers during the harsh realities of war, and the enduring role of faith in times of crisis.
