La Nouvelle Europe - The Civil War in Berlin, January 5-11, 1919
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an evocative and haunting image from the aftermath of the First World War. The photograph, taken from "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" published by L'Illustration, Paris in 1924, captures a pivotal moment in German history during the Spartacus League uprising, also known as the German Revolution or the Spartacus Rebellion. The scene unfolds on the streets of Berlin, where a team of soldiers, armed with modern flame projectors or flamethrowers, are seen advancing. The image conveys the chaos and intensity of the civil conflict that engulfed Germany in the aftermath of World War I. The country was in a state of crisis, with various political factions vying for power and control. The Spartacus League, a Marxist revolutionary group, sought to overthrow the German government and establish a socialist state. The photograph offers a glimpse into the brutal tactics used during the suppression of the uprising. The soldiers, dressed in military uniforms, are seen advancing with their flamethrowers, ready to unleash a torrent of flames onto the streets. The image is a stark reminder of the devastating impact of modern warfare on civilian populations. The photograph is attributed to an unknown creator, adding to its mystique and historical significance. It is a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the complex political landscape of the early 20th century. The image is a valuable historical document, offering insight into a pivotal moment in German history and the aftermath of the First World War.
