EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a poignant moment in history during World War I. Taken in 1918, it showcases the Austrian Hospice building in Jerusalem, which became a safe haven for Syrian, Armenian, and Jewish orphans. These innocent children found solace within its walls, cared for by the compassionate efforts of the British Syria and Palestine Relief Fund and the American Red Cross. The image portrays a group of young boys and girls dressed in uniforms that symbolize their respective backgrounds. Their faces reflect both resilience and vulnerability as they stand together amidst the chaos of war. The sepia tones add an air of nostalgia to this powerful snapshot from a bygone era. In this single frame, we witness not only the devastating consequences of conflict but also humanity's capacity for compassion and solidarity. It serves as a reminder that even amidst turmoil, there are individuals who dedicate themselves to providing aid and support to those most affected. Granger Art on Demand has preserved this historical gem from their collection with great care. Through this photo print, viewers can connect with these brave children whose lives were forever shaped by war but who found hope within the walls of the Austrian Hospice in Jerusalem over a century ago.
