EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "A Quick Change of Front: A German Shopkeeper Hides His Origins Following the Outbreak of War," captures a poignant moment in history as John Smith, formerly known as Johann Schmidt, disguises himself to conceal his German origins in the face of escalating tensions and the outbreak of war. The image, taken in the early 20th century, depicts Smith standing in front of his delicatessen, surrounded by traditional German foodstuffs such as sauerkraut and sausages, yet wearing a British overcoat and hat, and holding a leash in his hand, leading a dog with a collar bearing the name "Rover." The contrast between Smith's German identity and his attempt to blend in with the British population is palpable, as he dons a disguise in an effort to protect himself and his business from potential harm. The shop, named "Delikatessen," is adorned with German flags and signs, yet Smith's new British persona stands in stark contrast to the traditional German items on display. The photograph offers a poignant reminder of the complexities and challenges that arose during times of war and conflict, as individuals were forced to make difficult decisions to protect themselves and their families. It also highlights the power of disguise and the ability to present a different front to the world, even in the most trying of circumstances. This historical image, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past and sheds light on the human stories that often get lost in the annals of history. It serves as a reminder of the resilience and adaptability of the human spirit, even in the face of adversity and uncertainty.
