Exodus — 1915 - A Glimpse into the Human Spirit Amidst World War I
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This black and white lithograph, titled "Exodus — 1915" created by Theophile Alexandre Steinlen, offers a poignant portrayal of the mass displacement caused by the First World War. Set against the backdrop of war-torn France in the early 20th century, this artwork captures a group of diverse individuals embarking on an arduous journey to seek refuge. In this evocative scene, men, women, children, and elderly civilians are depicted walking together with determination etched upon their faces. Each figure carries their own story of loss and survival as they flee from their homes in search of safety. Steinlen's masterful use of lithography brings out every nuance and emotion within each character's portrait. The artist skillfully conveys a sense of unity among these displaced people despite their differences – a testament to humanity's resilience during times of crisis. Through his work, Steinlen not only documents history but also invites us to reflect upon our shared experiences as we witness the strength that emerges when faced with adversity. As we gaze at this powerful image captured over a century ago at the Art Institute Chicago gallery today, it serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos and destruction, hope can prevail. "Exodus — 1915" stands as an enduring symbol of courage and endurance for generations to come—a timeless testament to the indomitable human spirit.
