From Horses to Barracks - Aerschot's Unconventional Army Quarters!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we are transported back in time to the tumultuous era of World War I. The image showcases the Occupation of Aerschot by German troops, but what truly catches our eye is their peculiar choice of barracks – inside a church! With his skilled hand and artistic flair, E. Matania brings this extraordinary scene to life through his detailed drawing. As we gaze at the sketch, it becomes evident that even during wartime, creativity knows no bounds. The soldiers' horses stand nearby, seemingly unfazed by their unusual surroundings. Perhaps they too appreciate the architectural beauty and spiritual solace offered by the church walls? Or maybe they simply enjoy being close to their brave comrades? As men prepare for battle within these hallowed halls turned military quarters, buckets lie scattered around - a reminder that even amidst war, mundane tasks must be attended to. This thought-provoking artwork not only captures an important moment in history but also highlights how human resilience can adapt even in dire circumstances. It reminds us that sometimes unconventional solutions arise out of necessity. So let us salute those resourceful soldiers who found shelter within these sacred walls while defending their beliefs and fighting for peace. And may this remarkable image continue to inspire us with its blend of artistry and historical significance for generations to come!
