EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a poignant moment during the Spanish Civil War, as members of the International Brigades bid farewell to each other before departing from Barcelona. The International Brigades were a multinational force of volunteers who came to Spain to support the Republican government against the Nationalist rebels led by Francisco Franco. In this image, taken in 1938, the men are seen gathered outside in the bright sunlight, their faces etched with determination and sadness. Some clasp hands or embrace, while others look on with solemn expressions. The scene is a stark reminder of the human cost of the conflict, which lasted from 1936 to 1939 and resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. The photograph was taken in Barcelona, but the men are likely headed to the front lines in Salamanca, where some of the most intense fighting took place. The image is part of the historical archives of the Spanish National Library (Archivo Histórico Nacional) and offers a powerful glimpse into a pivotal moment in Spanish history.
