EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a poignant moment in history as Nicholas II, the last Emperor of Russia, holds an icon before his kneeling troops. Taken from the Illustrated War News on September 9th, 1914, this lithograph by the English School showcases the solemnity and reverence of this significant event. Nicholas II is seen mounted on horseback, dressed in his military uniform. With unwavering determination etched across his face, he holds the sacred icon high above him for all to see. His troops kneel before him in humble submission, their loyalty evident in their unified display. As Grand Duke of Finland and titular King of Poland, Nicholas II's role extended beyond that of a mere ruler. He embodied Saint Nicholas the Passion-Bearer as he led his soldiers into battle during World War I. However, fate dealt him a tragic hand when he abdicated in 1917 only to be later killed by Bolsheviks in July 1918. The image not only highlights Nicholas II's leadership but also symbolizes the sacrifices made during this tumultuous period known as The Great War. It serves as a reminder of both the power held by those who govern and the immense responsibility they bear towards their people. Preserved within a private collection today, this print allows us to reflect upon an era marked by conflict and upheaval while honoring those who fought bravely under their leader's guidance.
