EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - German soldiers on guard duty outside the Hotel Crillon, Paris, on October 7th, 1940. The hotel served as the headquarters of the German High Command during the occupation of France in World War II. In this image, we see a group of male soldiers marching with precision and determination along Place de la Concorde, one of Paris' iconic squares. Clad in their military uniforms and armed with rifles, these infantrymen stand as sentries guarding the occupied territory. The composition highlights not only the imposing presence of these soldiers but also showcases the grandeur of Hotel Crillon itself. Its magnificent exterior stands tall amidst other buildings lining Avenue des Champs Elysees. While this photograph evokes a sense of wartime tension and occupation, it also serves as a reminder that even in times of conflict, life goes on for ordinary people going about their daily routines. Pedestrians can be seen walking down the street nearby, seemingly unfazed by the presence of armed guards. As an art media from the 1940s, this monochrome print carries historical significance and offers us a glimpse into an era marked by warfare and geopolitical turmoil. It is an important document that reminds us to reflect upon our past while appreciating how far we have come since those tumultuous times.
