EDITORS COMMENTS
The front cover illustration from Le Petit Journal, titled "Those who are no more on the battlefields" captures a poignant moment in history. Created by an anonymous French artist in 1914, this colour lithograph depicts a group of women known as cantinières or vivandières. These brave and courageous women played a vital role in supporting the army during times of war. In the image, we see several female figures dressed in military uniforms, standing proudly amidst barrels and tents. Their hats adorned with feathers and tricolour ribbons symbolize their allegiance to France. The aprons they wear signify their duty to provide food and drink for soldiers on the battlefield. This artwork pays homage to these unsung heroines who risked their lives alongside men on the front lines. They were not just mere suppliers but also offered comfort and support to weary soldiers fighting for their country's freedom. The composition exudes strength and determination while capturing the essence of camaraderie between these women warriors. It serves as a reminder that even though they may no longer be physically present on the battlefields, their contributions will forever be remembered. This print is not only a historical artifact but also an ode to all those who have sacrificed themselves throughout history for noble causes. It stands as a testament to human resilience in times of adversity and honors those who selflessly served their nation during wartime.
