EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic print depicts a poignant moment in world history: Kaiser Wilhelm II's address to the German people at the onset of the First World War on 6 August 1914. The image shows the monarch standing before a grand fireplace in the Marble Hall of the Berlin Palace, delivering a solemn notice to his nation. Surrounded by the opulence of the room, Wilhelm II's stern expression and clenched fist convey the gravity of the situation. The eagle crest atop the mantelpiece and the gothic architecture of the room add to the symbolism of the moment, representing the power and might of the German Empire. The text of the address, not visible in this print, called for the German people to unite and prepare for war. Just days earlier, on 1 August 1914, Austria-Hungary had declared war on Serbia, triggering a chain reaction that would draw in the major European powers. Germany, allied with Austria-Hungary, responded by mobilizing its military forces. This image is a testament to the beginning of a global conflict that would last for four long years and reshape the political and social landscape of Europe and the world. The First World War marked the end of an era, with the fall of empires and the rise of new nations. This print serves as a reminder of the power of words and the far-reaching consequences of political decisions.
