EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful and poignant image, we are transported back to the Serbo-Bulgarian War of 1885. The photograph captures a deeply significant moment as Serbian soldiers prepare to depart for Sofia, Bulgaria. Standing in formation, these brave men take a brief pause from their duties to engage in a solemn ritual. Before embarking on their journey into battle, each soldier reverently kisses a cross held by an Eastern Orthodox priest. This act symbolizes their unwavering faith and seeks divine protection as they face the uncertainties of war. The presence of the Catholic cross highlights the diversity within the Serbian army, united under one cause despite religious differences. The late autumn landscape serves as a backdrop for this emotional scene. As November's chill hangs in the air, these men stand resolute and determined. Their marching orders have been given; they are ready to fight for their homeland. This engraving was created by an American artist who sought to immortalize this historic event through his craft. It is a testament not only to the bravery and sacrifice of those involved but also to the enduring power of art in capturing moments that shape our collective memory. Granger Art on Demand has preserved this remarkable piece, allowing us today to reflect upon the courage displayed by these Serbian soldiers over a century ago during one of Europe's lesser-known conflicts - The Serbo-Bulgarian War.
