Balkan Breakfast Bulgarian Captives Captured Eating Encampment Imprisoned Macedonia Meal Pows Prisoners
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of respite for Bulgarian prisoners of war (POWs) during the Second Balkan War, which broke out on June 16, 1913. The image, taken circa 1913, depicts a group of Bulgarian soldiers and officers huddled around a makeshift table, as they prepare to eat their morning breakfast in a Macedonian encampment. The prisoners, who had been captured during Bulgarian attacks into the region, sit on the ground, their faces etched with exhaustion and the harsh realities of war. The scene is a poignant reminder of the human cost of conflict, as these men, once comrades in arms, now find themselves on opposing sides, forced to endure the hardships of captivity together. The table, sparsely set with plates and utensils, is a symbol of the meager provisions afforded to these prisoners, as they await the outcome of the ongoing conflict. The image offers a glimpse into the daily life of POWs during this turbulent time in history, and serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers on all sides of the conflict.
