EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the chaos and hardships of the Western Front during the First World War, a sense of humor found its way even into the most unexpected places. This photograph captures a French customs sign, likely a jest, situated by the side of the road. The sign, bearing the French word "Douane" for customs, is accompanied by an empty open-topped car, its upholstered seats padded and inviting. The car, a stark contrast to the harsh realities of war, seems to beckon travelers to halt and enjoy a moment of respite. The sign, with its playful tone, serves as a reminder that even in the most trying of times, a sense of levity and humor can persist. Dated between 1914 and 1918, this image offers a unique glimpse into the human experience of the Great War.
