EDITORS COMMENTS
"France et Russie; 1st May in Christiania: In the streets of the Norwegian capital, our ministers, unexpectedly witnesses to such spectacles, have crossed an endless procession of socialists where children from schools, as well as men, carry red flags." This evocative photograph, taken in 1916, captures a significant moment in history as France and Russia came together in solidarity during the first few months of the First World War. The image, from the "Collection de la Guerre IV. L'Illustration Tome CXLVII. La Guerre Janvier, Fevrier, Mars, Avril, Mai, Juin 1916," depicts the bustling streets of Christiania, now known as Oslo, Norway's capital. The ministers, dressed in formal attire, are seen mingling with the crowd, their surprised expressions adding to the sense of unity and camaraderie. The socialist parade, a powerful symbol of the political climate during this period, is led by children carrying red flags. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the international alliances and the widespread impact of the First World War on various communities across Europe. The image, though its creator remains unknown, is an essential historical document that offers a glimpse into the political and social landscape of the time.
