EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a somber moment in history during the Franco-Prussian War. The image depicts French soldiers who were wounded in their final, unsuccessful attempt to break out from the Siege of Paris. It is January 1871, and these brave soldiers are arriving at the Quai de la Megisserie, seeking medical attention and solace. The scene is illuminated by torchlight as boats transport the injured soldiers along the riverbank of the Seine. Civilians gather nearby, watching with despair as these casualties of war arrive on stretchers. The night sky adds an eerie ambiance to this poignant tableau. In this moment frozen in time, one can sense both hope and desperation among those present. The soldiers' injuries serve as a stark reminder of the brutal realities of warfare, while also highlighting humanity's resilience and determination to survive. As we observe this historical event through Bridgeman Images' print, it becomes clear that healthcare and medicine played crucial roles during times of conflict. This engraving serves as a testament to not only the physical health challenges faced by these wounded warriors but also their unwavering spirit. Through this artwork, we are transported back to a significant chapter in French history – one marked by sacrifice, courage, and ultimately defeat.
