EDITORS COMMENTS
In the tranquil countryside of northern France, towards the end of the First World War, the once serene wayside crucifix near the village of Bellenglise stands as a poignant reminder of the devastating impact of war. The date is October 1918, and the scene is one of desolation and destruction. The Roman Catholic crucifix, a symbol of faith and hope, has been damaged during the conflict, its figure of Christ bearing the scars of the war. The telegraph wires crisscrossing the road, a common sight during the war, add to the sense of disruption and chaos. The once vibrant colors of the cross have faded, and the inscription "INRI" (Iesus Nazarenus, Rex Iudaeorum or "Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews") is barely visible. The wayside crucifix, a common sight along the roads of Europe during the Middle Ages, was a place of pilgrimage and reflection for travelers. Now, it stands as a testament to the enduring power of faith in the face of adversity. The damage to the crucifix is a reminder of the destruction and devastation wrought by the Great War. The war had a profound impact on the people of France, and the country was left scarred both physically and emotionally. The wayside crucifix near Bellenglise serves as a poignant reminder of the resilience of the human spirit and the enduring power of faith, even in the darkest of times. The print captures the essence of a bygone era, a time when the world was forever changed by the events of the First World War. The damaged crucifix is a symbol of hope and renewal, a reminder that even in the face of destruction, there is always the possibility for healing and rebirth. The image is a powerful reminder of the importance of preserving history and honoring the past, as we strive to learn from it and build a better future.
