Ferdinand Foch, French soldier and hero of World War I, 1922
Ferdinand Foch, French soldier and hero of World War I, 1922. Foch (1851-1929) was chosen as supreme commander of the Allied armies on 26 March, 1918, five days after the start of the German Spring Offensive, which threatened to end the war in Germanys favour. In July 1918 Foch stopped the German advance at the Second Battle of the Marne, finally turning the tide of the war decisively in the Allies favour, for which he was made a Marshal of France.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the esteemed French soldier and hero of World War I, Marshal Ferdinand Foch, in 1922. Foch's remarkable military career is highlighted by his appointment as supreme commander of the Allied armies just days after the German Spring Offensive began in 1918. With his strategic brilliance, he successfully halted the German advance at the Second Battle of the Marne in July that same year, ultimately turning the tide of war in favor of the Allies. In this portrait, Foch sits atop a majestic horse, embodying strength and leadership. The image exudes an air of authority as he gazes confidently into the distance while enjoying a momentary respite from battle with a pipe clenched between his teeth. His military uniform speaks to his dedication and commitment to serving his country. The photograph not only immortalizes Marshal Ferdinand Foch but also serves as a metaphor for resilience and determination amidst adversity. It symbolizes how one man's unwavering resolve can change history and shape nations. Preserved within an album titled "Photographies dans L'Intimite de Personnages Illustres" this rare glimpse into Foch's life offers us insight into both his public persona as a revered war hero and glimpses behind-the-scenes that reveal him as an ordinary man who played an extraordinary role during one of humanity's darkest times.
