EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the sawmills at Medevja-gora, a remote location in north western Russia, during the tumultuous period of the Russian Civil War in June 1919. The image presents a striking contrast between the industrious scene of the sawmills, with their large water-powered wheels turning and logs being cut into planks, and the chaotic backdrop of the Russian Civil War. The bridge, which spans the river, connects the mills to the surrounding forest, providing access to the abundant timber resources that fueled the industry. At the time of this photograph, Medevja-gora was situated in the Republic of Karelia, a region that experienced significant foreign intervention during the Russian Civil War. British forces, seeking to secure strategic resources and influence in the region, played a significant role in the conflict. The presence of the British is evident in the uniforms of some of the men working in the mills, adding another layer of complexity to this intriguing scene. Despite the turmoil of the war, the sawmills at Medevja-gora continued to operate, providing essential resources for the local population and contributing to the region's economy. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the resilience and adaptability of industry and community in the face of adversity.
