Hamburger Burgerwehr / Hamburger Militia (colour litho)

8666245 Hamburger Burgerwehr / Hamburger Militia (colour litho) by Christophe (Colomb, Georges) (1856-1945); Private Collection; (add.info.: Hamburger Burgerwehr. Die Burgerwehr bildete in den Hansestadten das regulare Militar, daher war hier die Verbundenheit zwischen ihr und dem Burgertum besonders fuhlbar. Im Fruhjahr und Herbst wurden die militarpflichtigen Vater und Sohne einige Zeit eingezogen, um sich - ahnlich dem heutigen Wehrsport - soldatisch zu ertuchtigen. Eine prachtige Parade beschloss dann diese Ubungszeit. Translation: Hamburger Militia. The citizens militia formed the regular military in the Hanseatic cities, so the bond between them and the bourgeoisie was particularly noticeable here. In the spring and fall, the father and sons who were conscripted into the military were drafted for a time in order to do military exercise - similar to today's military sport. A magnificent parade then concluded this practice period. Illustration for Deutsche Kulturbilder, 1400-1900 (Cigaretten-Bilderdienst Hamburg-Bahrenfeld, 1934).); © Look and Learn

EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant colour lithograph captures the spirit of the Hamburger Burgerwehr, or Hamburger Militia, in all its glory. The image depicts a group of citizens proudly marching in formation, showcasing their dedication to protecting their city and upholding the values of the bourgeoisie. The bond between the militia and the bourgeoisie is palpable in this scene, as these ordinary citizens take on military duties to defend their homeland. In a time when militaristic training was seen as essential for all able-bodied men, the father and sons depicted here undergo rigorous exercises to prepare themselves for any potential threats. As they march through the streets of Hamburg, one can imagine the sense of pride and camaraderie that must have filled their hearts. The elaborate uniforms and precise formations speak to a deep sense of tradition and duty that guided these men in their service to their city. This print serves as a reminder of a bygone era when citizen militias played an important role in maintaining peace and order within communities. It is a testament to the resilience and unity of those who were willing to put aside personal interests for the greater good.
