EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of surrender during the Battle of Bizani, a pivotal event in the First Balkan War between Greece and the Ottoman Empire in 1912. The scene unfolds at Ioannina (Jannina), an ancient city in northwestern Greece, where the Ottoman garrison, led by Pasha Esat, had held out against Greek forces for months. In the foreground, Greek Crown Prince Constantine stands triumphantly, his regal crown atop his head, as he accepts the surrender of the defeated Ottoman soldiers. The Turkish Pasha, Esat, is seen in the background, dressed in traditional attire and with a resigned expression, signaling the end of the resistance. The defeated Ottoman soldiers, many of them with their hands raised in surrender, are seen in the background, as Greek forces move in to secure their weapons and artillery. The Battle of Bizani marked the final major engagement of the First Balkan War, which saw the dismantling of the Ottoman Empire's European territories and the emergence of modern Greece, Albania, and Bulgaria. This powerful image serves as a testament to the courage and determination of the soldiers on both sides, as well as the political and historical significance of the conflict.
