EDITORS COMMENTS
(The Unknown American Soldier in Arlington Amphitheater: The Highest American Personalities and Foreign Dignitaries Gathered Around the Glorious Casket, 1921) is a poignant photograph from the aftermath of the First World War. The image, taken in Arlington Cemetery, Virginia, United States, captures a solemn and symbolic moment in American history. The Unknown Soldier, an unidentified American serviceman killed during the war, was brought back to the United States in 1921 and interred in Arlington National Cemetery with full military honors. This photograph shows the moment during the interment ceremony when the highest American personalities and foreign dignitaries paid their respects to the fallen hero. The image is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by the military during the war and the unity of the nation in mourning its losses. The soldiers in uniform, standing at attention, and the dignitaries, dressed in their finest, create a striking contrast against the backdrop of the simple, white casket. The image is a testament to the importance of remembering and honoring the fallen, and the enduring symbolism of the Unknown Soldier as a representative of all those who gave their lives in service to their country. The photograph was published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924. It is a poignant reminder of the impact of the First World War on America and the world, and the enduring importance of remembrance and sacrifice.
