EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Scenes of Franco-Prussian War" takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a pivotal moment in history. The engraving, created by an English School artist, showcases the tumultuous events that unfolded during this significant conflict. The image transports us to the city of Strasbourg, where we witness a multitude of scenes unfolding before our eyes. Monuments stand tall amidst the chaos as railway trucks pass by and peasants go about their daily lives. In the center of it all, we see a grand statue of Frederick the Great being crowned, symbolizing power and victory. The Franco-Prussian War was fought between France and Germany during this period. This engraving provides a glimpse into both sides of the conflict - German soldiers representing strength and unity while French civilians depict resilience in adversity. As we explore further into this artwork, we are reminded of how war affects not only individuals but also entire nations. The housing structures in Berlin reflect its old-world charm while Paris exudes elegance with its iconic architecture. These contrasting images highlight the cultural differences between Germany and France within Europe. Overall, this print serves as a visual testament to historical events that shaped European history forever. It reminds us of the importance of understanding past conflicts to appreciate our present-day peace within countries like Germany and France who now thrive together as members of the European Union (EU).
