EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of transformation in Petrograd, Russia, during the tumultuous year of 1917. Amidst the backdrop of the Russian Revolution and the ongoing First World War, a group of city militiamen proudly stand before an armored car, a symbol of their newfound power and determination. The militia, a volunteer police force, had emerged in response to the collapsing Russian imperial order and the growing chaos on the streets. Dressed in various coats and uniforms, these men represent the diverse cross-section of Petrograd society, united in their desire to protect their city and defend their community. The armored car, a relic of modern warfare, adds an intriguing contrast to the scene. Its imposing presence underscores the shifting balance of power in the city, as the old order gives way to the new. The car, which could be mistaken for a tank at first glance, was likely repurposed from military stock to serve the needs of the city militia. This photograph offers a glimpse into the complex and dynamic nature of the events unfolding in Petrograd during this pivotal year, as the city and its people navigated the challenges of war, revolution, and the uncertain future that lay ahead.
