EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures the grandeur and excitement of the Opening Ceremony of Berlin Stadium in 1913, intended to be the venue for the 1916 Olympic Games. The image showcases a sea of spectators, dressed in their finest attire, eagerly anticipating the start of the festivities. The architectural beauty of the stadium is on full display, with its impressive columns and arches framing the scene. The 1916 Olympic Games, which were to be held in Berlin, were a significant event in the world of sports and international relations. However, the First World War intervened, and the Games were never held. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the potential that was lost during those turbulent times. The Opening Ceremony was an occasion for celebration and unity, bringing together people from all walks of life to participate in the joy of sport. The atmosphere was electric, with the anticipation of competition and camaraderie in the air. Despite the disappointment of the cancelled Games, the memory of this moment lives on, a testament to the enduring power of sport to bring people together. This photograph, taken from the Mary Evans Prints Online collection, is a rare and valuable document of a pivotal moment in Olympic history. It offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the world came together in the spirit of friendly competition and international solidarity.
