EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures the chaotic scene of a bank run in Berlin, Germany during the early days of World War I in 1914. The image shows a large crowd of anxious civilians, mostly women, gathered outside the entrance of a savings bank, desperate to withdraw their savings before the bank's imminent collapse. The economic instability caused by the war had led to a loss of faith in the banking system, resulting in a mass exodus of depositors seeking to secure their hard-earned money. The scene is a stark reminder of the far-reaching impact of the war on civilian populations, extending beyond the battlefields to the very foundations of their financial security. The photograph, taken in the capital city of Germany, underscores the sense of uncertainty and chaos that engulfed Europe during this tumultuous period in history. The Great War, which lasted from 1914 to 1918, would ultimately result in the deaths of millions and the reshaping of the political and economic landscape of Europe and the world.
