EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant moment during the First World War in Paris. The image showcases a group of determined women carrying heavy sacks of flour, symbolizing their significant contribution to the war effort. Published as an illustration in Le Petit Journal on 8th July 1917, this color lithograph provides a vivid glimpse into the lives of these hardworking females. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness the resilience and strength of these women as they unload sacks from a bakery. Their faces may be weary, but their determination shines through as they play an integral role in ensuring bread delivery during such tumultuous times. This image serves as a powerful testament to the vital work performed by women during wartime. The backdrop of war-torn Paris adds another layer of depth to this scene. As explosions echoed throughout the city and uncertainty loomed over every corner, these brave individuals continued to carry out their duties with unwavering dedication. Preserved within private collections today, this photograph stands as a reminder not only of the sacrifices made by those who fought on battlefields but also by those who worked tirelessly behind-the-scenes. It is an homage to all those unsung heroes whose efforts often go unnoticed amidst larger narratives. Through this remarkable artwork captured by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back in time and given insight into one small aspect of life during World War I - where ordinary women became extraordinary pillars supporting their communities and nations alike.
