EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a poignant moment during World War I. The image showcases Senegalese troops at the railroad station in San Stefano, Alexandria, Egypt. In the background, a crescent train can be seen arriving with wounded soldiers from Flanders. The sepia-toned print evokes a sense of nostalgia and transports us back to the early years of the 20th century. The brave Senegalese soldiers stand tall and proud, their faces etched with determination amidst the chaos of war. This photograph serves as a reminder of the global impact of World War I, bringing together men from different corners of the world to fight for their respective nations. It highlights not only their courage but also their sacrifice as they await the arrival of wounded comrades. The composition beautifully captures both stillness and movement - while the troops remain stationary on one side, life continues bustling around them on this busy railway platform. This contrast emphasizes that even in times of conflict, daily routines persist alongside moments that alter history forever. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are reminded to honor those who fought valiantly during World War I and pay tribute to all those affected by its devastating consequences.
