EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting print captures a moment of desperation and hope during the outbreak of hostilities in Russia in 1914. The image depicts Russian soldiers being encouraged by a vision of the Virgin Mary, her ethereal presence offering them solace and strength in the face of impending defeat. However, despite their fervent prayers and belief in this paranormal vision, the soldiers ultimately find themselves unable to overcome the harsh realities of war.
The juxtaposition of faith and futility is palpable in this powerful historical scene, as the soldiers cling to their religious beliefs even as they are faced with insurmountable odds. The Virgin Mary's presence looms large over the battlefield, a symbol of divine protection that proves to be insufficient against the brutal forces of war.
This image serves as a poignant reminder of the complexities of human nature and our enduring quest for salvation in times of crisis. It speaks to our innate desire for guidance and reassurance, even when faced with overwhelming adversity. Through this visual narrative, we are transported back in time to witness a moment where faith collided with harsh reality on the battlefield - a testament to both our resilience and vulnerability as individuals caught up in the tumultuous currents of history.
