EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures the resilience and determination of two elderly women, refugees of the devastating First World War, who steadfastly refused to abandon their severely damaged house in Northern France in 1919. The once charming farmhouse, now a mere shadow of its former self, bears the brunt of the destruction wrought by relentless shelling. The roof is obliterated, leaving gaping holes that expose the interior, while the walls are riddled with shrapnel and debris. The farmland surrounding the house is scarred by the ravages of war, with the remnants of destroyed structures and the desolation of a once thriving community visible in the distance. Despite the obvious danger and hardship, the women, their faces etched with lines of worry and exhaustion, remain steadfast in their resolve to stay. Their unwavering commitment to their home, a symbol of their past and a beacon of familiarity in the midst of chaos, is a testament to the human spirit's ability to endure even in the face of unimaginable adversity. The image serves as a stark reminder of the civilian casualties and the devastating impact of war on communities, long after the guns have fallen silent.
