Au Volant; Tracteurs d'une piece de 240 - voiture-affut et voiture-piece
EDITORS COMMENTS
(At the Wheel: Tractor Section of 240 Pieces: Tractor-Firing Platform and Tractor-Parts), 1918, is a captivating photograph from the first world war era, taken from the "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" published by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924. The image showcases a remarkable scene of soldiers and tractors on a thoroughfare during the war. In the foreground, a man skillfully drives a tractor, while in the background, another tractor is being towed by a third one, with soldiers standing on its towing bar, ready to unload its cargo. The tractor being towed appears to be a tractor-firing platform or voiture-affut, which was used to transport artillery pieces to the front lines and position them for firing. The other tractor, a voiture-piece, was used to transport spare parts and supplies. The photograph offers a unique glimpse into the logistical efforts of the French army during the first world war. The soldiers, dressed in their military uniforms, are focused and determined as they carry out their tasks, illustrating the importance of teamwork and resourcefulness in the face of adversity. The image also highlights the role of road transport in the military, with the tractors making their way along a road that likely served as a crucial thoroughfare for the movement of troops and supplies to the front lines. Despite the image being unsigned, it remains a powerful reminder of the sacrifices and resilience of the soldiers during the first world war, and a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the military during this pivotal period in history. The photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of historical images, and a poignant reminder of the human spirit and determination in the face of warfare.
