EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures a pivotal moment in Greek and European history during the First World War. The image, titled "Les Evenements de Grece; Le 27 juin, venant de Salonique, M. Venizelos, vetu de blanc, vu de dos, a gauche de la bouee sur le pont du contre-torpilleur, rentre au Piree, a bord du contre-torpilleur Sphendoni," was published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, a French publication based in Paris, in 1924. The photograph depicts Eleftherios Venizelos, a prominent Greek statesman and politician, returning to Piraeus, Greece, on board the destroyer Sphendoni on June 27, 1917. Venizelos, dressed in white and seen from behind, is shown standing to the left of a buoy on the deck of the ship. The image provides a unique perspective of Venizelos, who played a significant role in the Eastern Front of the First World War and was a key figure in the Greek political scene during this tumultuous period. The photograph is a testament to the naval warfare that took place during the First World War and the important role that ships and boats played in transporting troops and supplies across water. The image also highlights the political dynamics of the time, as Venizelos was a controversial figure in Greek politics and his return to Piraeus marked a significant moment in Greek history. Overall, this photograph is an intriguing glimpse into the past, providing insights into the people, events, and political climate of the First World War era.
