Metal Prints from Mary Evans Picture Library
1st Balkan War - unexploded shell
Macedonia - a Turkish Notable (Dignitary) in his garden looking at a Bulgarian shell which had not exploded. The First Balkan War, which lasted from October 1912 to May 1913, pitted the Balkan League (Serbia, Montenegro, Greece, and Bulgaria) against the Ottoman Empire. The combined armies of the Balkan states overcame the numerically inferior and strategically disadvantaged Ottoman armies, and achieved rapid success. As a result of the war, almost all remaining European territories of the Ottoman Empire were captured and partitioned among the allies, and an independent Albanian state set up. Despite their success, the Balkan states were unsatisfied with the peace settlement, and the tensions among them, with the unifying Ottoman threat gone, would soon result in the Second Balkan War

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of tension and uncertainty during the First Balkan War in Macedonia. In the image, a Turkish Notable stands in his garden, gazing at a Bulgarian shell that had failed to explode. The unexploded bomb serves as a stark reminder of the violence and destruction that surrounded him.
The First Balkan War, which took place from October 1912 to May 1913, saw the Balkan League – consisting of Serbia, Montenegro, Greece, and Bulgaria – pitted against the Ottoman Empire. Despite being outnumbered and strategically disadvantaged, the combined armies of the Balkan states achieved rapid success against their Ottoman foes.
As a result of this conflict, almost all remaining European territories of the Ottoman Empire were captured and partitioned among the allies. Additionally, an independent Albanian state was established. However, tensions among the victorious Balkan states soon emerged over dissatisfaction with the peace settlement.
This photograph is not just a historical artifact but also a poignant reminder of the human cost of war. It captures a moment frozen in time – one man standing amidst chaos and destruction caused by conflict between nations. The unexploded shell symbolizes both danger and resilience in face of adversity during this turbulent period in history.
