EDITORS COMMENTS
This litho print captures a poignant moment in history as a victorious First World War Allied tank passes by the tomb of a French cavalry soldier from the Franco-Prussian War. The image, created by Carl Ludwig Friedrich Becker, showcases the juxtaposition between two significant conflicts that shaped Europe's landscape. In the foreground, we see the imposing tank symbolizing modern warfare and technological advancements. Its presence signifies the triumph of the Allies during World War I and their determination to overcome their enemies. As it rolls past, it pays homage to fallen soldiers who fought bravely in previous battles. The tomb of the French cavalry soldier stands as a solemn reminder of sacrifice and honor. It represents those who gave their lives for their country during an earlier conflict with Prussia. Strasbourg Cathedral looms in the distance, serving as a witness to both wars and reminding us of France's resilience throughout history. This postcard-like image evokes feelings of patriotism and remembrance while highlighting themes such as revenge, liberation, and victory. It serves as a powerful propaganda tool that aimed to unite nations against common enemies. Becker's artwork beautifully encapsulates this historical moment while inviting viewers to reflect on the cost of war and appreciate those who have made sacrifices for freedom.
