EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the tranquility of a forest at dusk in 1918, a young woman stands, her blue dress a striking contrast against the fading light. In her hands, she cradles a pair of delicate Chinese lanterns, their warm glow casting an ethereal light upon her face. The lanterns, symbols of love and hope, add a touch of oriental charm to the scene. The first Great War, or World War I, had been raging for nearly three years, leaving a trail of destruction and sorrow in its wake. Amidst the chaos and despair, moments of beauty and tranquility continued to exist. This image, taken from the Holly Leaves section of ISDN, captures the essence of such a moment. The lanterns, reminiscent of the East, were a reminder of the cultural exchange that continued despite the war. The woman's serene expression and the peaceful surroundings serve as a poignant reminder of the resilience of the human spirit, even in the darkest of times. This historical photograph, taken in 1918, is a beautiful testament to the enduring power of love and the simple pleasures that can bring joy and hope.
