EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative etching by German artist Erich Erler captures the harsh realities of war as it depicts German soldiers making their way through a ruined village during the First World War. The image, dated between 1914 and 1918, portrays a desolate winter scene with soldiers trudging through the snow-covered streets of a devastated village. The once fine buildings now lie in ruins, their facades shattered and crumbling, a testament to the destruction wrought by the Great War. The soldiers, bundled up against the cold, march determinedly forward, their expressions serious and focused. Their uniforms, though worn and tattered, bear the insignia of their German army, a reminder of their allegiance and duty. The scene is one of both beauty and tragedy, as the intricate details of the etching highlight the delicate architecture of the village, now forever altered by the ravages of war. The village, identified as Samedan or Samaden, is a poignant reminder of the human cost of conflict. The image invites us to reflect on the lives disrupted, the homes destroyed, and the futility of war. Erler's etching is a powerful and moving work of art that captures the essence of the First World War and the indelible mark it left on the world.
