La Capitulation Bulgare; Le Prince Boris, en faveur de qui son père, le Tsar Ferdinand, abdiqua
EDITORS COMMENTS
(The Bulgarian Capitulation; Prince Boris, in whose favor his father, Tsar Ferdinand, abdicated), is a poignant black and white portrait capturing a pivotal moment in Bulgarian history during the First World War. The image, published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924, depicts Boris III of Bulgaria (Boris Klemens Robert Maria Pius Ludwig Stanislaus Xaver), with a thoughtful expression as he looks away from the viewer. Boris III, born in 1894, ascended to the Bulgarian throne in 1918 following his father's abdication. The event marked the end of the Bulgarian involvement in World War I, which had been a disastrous campaign for the country. Boris III's father, Tsar Ferdinand, had been pressured to abdicate due to the military defeats and popular unrest. The photograph captures the young prince in a formal attire, wearing a military uniform with decorations, signifying his new role as the monarch. The image is a testament to the complexities of the political landscape during wartime, as well as the personal sacrifices made by individuals in the face of historical events. The print, now held in the collections of The Print Collector, offers a glimpse into the past, providing valuable insights into the people and events of the First World War era. The image's haunting composition and the enigmatic expression on Boris III's face add to its historical significance, making it a captivating addition to any collection focused on the 20th century, conflict, and royalty.
