EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving from a contemporary English newspaper takes us back to the historic city of Poznan in 1846. The image captures the tumultuous time when the Polish people rose up against their Prussian occupiers. In this scene, we are transported to a bustling street in Poznan, where families and individuals go about their daily lives amidst political unrest. The architecture of the buildings reflects both Polish and German influences, showcasing the complex history of this city. The centerpiece of the image is a magnificent church that stands proudly in the middle of a square. Its towering spires reach towards the sky, symbolizing hope and resilience during these challenging times. Surrounding it are poplar trees, adding an element of tranquility to an otherwise chaotic setting. As we observe closely, we can see people engaged in conversations on street corners or going about their business with determination etched on their faces. Each person has their own story to tell - stories of resistance and longing for freedom. This wood engraving serves as a powerful reminder of Poland's struggle for independence and its enduring spirit throughout history. It encapsulates not only a specific moment but also represents countless other cities across Europe that fought against oppressive forces. Through this artwork by The Granger Collection, we are invited to reflect upon our own histories and appreciate those who have fought for liberty before us.
