EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Russian Orthodox Church in Geneva, Switzerland, as it celebrates its 50th anniversary in 1916. The church, located on Quai des Bahans, has been a spiritual beacon for the Russian expatriate community in Geneva since its founding in 1866. The anniversary celebration is evident in the large banner hanging from the church facade, which reads "Cinquantenaire" or "50th" in French. The image also shows a crowd of people gathered in front of the church, dressed in their finest Sunday attire, likely there to pay their respects and join in the festivities. The Russian Orthodox Church in Geneva has a rich history, having served as a place of worship for many prominent Russian figures in exile, including Leon Trotsky and Boris Pasternak. The 1910s were a particularly significant time for the church, as the Russian Revolution and subsequent civil war forced many Russians to seek refuge in Switzerland. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the lives of the Russian community in Geneva during a time of great upheaval and change. The Russian Orthodox Church in Geneva continues to be an important cultural and spiritual institution for the Russian diaspora, and this photograph serves as a reminder of its enduring legacy.
