EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful photograph, taken on 21 November 1918 in Huningue, Alsace, France, we witness a symbolic moment of victory and pride. The image captures the 2nd Moroccan Division as they bathe their flags in the mighty Rhine River after the conclusion of World War I. The men of the division stand tall and resolute, dressed in their military uniforms with their rifles at their sides. Their faces reflect both exhaustion from years of warfare and an undeniable sense of triumph. The French flag flutters proudly alongside the Moroccan flag, representing unity between two nations that fought side by side against a common enemy. The location itself holds historical significance - situated on the western front where countless battles were fought during the war. As these soldiers immerse their banners into the Rhine's waters, it symbolizes washing away not only physical dirt but also the horrors witnessed on those battlefields. This print serves as a reminder of sacrifice and resilience exhibited by these brave individuals who risked everything for their country. It is a testament to human strength amidst adversity and stands as an enduring tribute to all those who served during World War I.
