A satirical critique of how care and endurance operate within systems of mass violence.
The image shifts attention away from combat to the quieter labor that sustains life amid destruction. Care appears as presence rather than spectacle, emphasizing steadiness, reassurance, and routine as forms of resistance within the machinery of war.
Historical Note
This spread appeared in a 1915 issue of La Baïonnette and was illustrated by Fabien Fabiano. Organized around a red cross motif, it depicts everyday moments of wartime nursing, highlighting medical care as both labor and refuge in First World War hospitals.
