EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "On Red Cross, 1914" takes us back to the early days of World War I. The image captures a group of dedicated medical personnel aboard the Red Cross ship bound for Europe in mid-September 1914. As they stand on the deck, their uniforms symbolize their commitment to providing crucial aid during this tumultuous time. The photograph showcases a diverse group of nurses, both men and women, united by their mission to care for those affected by war. Their stoic expressions reveal the gravity of the situation they are about to face as they embark on this perilous journey across the sea. Lifeboats dotting the ship's perimeter serve as a reminder that danger lurks nearby, ready to test their bravery and resilience. These brave individuals embody hope amidst chaos, prepared to navigate through treacherous waters in order to save lives. Taken by an American photographer from the 20th century whose name remains unknown, this historic snapshot offers a glimpse into an era defined by sacrifice and compassion. Preserved within a private collection, it serves as a testament to humanity's unwavering spirit even in times of darkness. As we admire this powerful image captured over a century ago, let us remember these unsung heroes who selflessly answered the call of duty when our world needed them most.
