EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the mobilization for the defence of Liege, Belgium on 31 July 1914. As World War I loomed, Germany's invasion of Belgium on 4 August heightened tensions and placed Liege at the forefront of resistance. The Belgians relied heavily on the strategic fortifications of this city to halt the German advance towards France. In this image, we see a group of brave Belgian soldiers standing resolute in their military uniforms. Their determined expressions reveal their unwavering commitment to protect their country from impending danger. These men represent not only themselves but also countless others who fought valiantly during this tumultuous time. Liege became a symbol of resilience as its defenders held out against relentless attacks from 5-16 August, effectively slowing down the German forces' progress towards France. However, despite their courageous efforts, heavy artillery bombardment eventually brought an end to their resistance. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its depiction of war and warfare but also in its portrayal of human strength and sacrifice. It serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos and destruction, individuals can rise above adversity to defend what they hold dear. As we reflect upon this historical moment frozen in time, let us pay tribute to these brave soldiers who stood tall against overwhelming odds – forever etching their names into the annals of history.
