On the Eastern Front - September 10, 1917 - A Reconnaissance of French Cavalry Watering Their Horses at Lake Ohrid
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an evocative image from the "Album de la Guerre 1914-1919," published by L'Illustration in Paris in 1924. The photograph captures a moment of respite for a group of French cavalrymen during the intense and grueling campaign on the Eastern Front of World War I. The scene is set at the shores of Lake Ohrid, a beautiful and historic body of water straddling the border between Albania, Macedonia, and Greece. The horses, their coats glistening with sweat, drink from the clear waters of the lake, while their riders rest at the waterside. The headland in the background offers a glimpse of the rugged terrain that would have challenged both man and beast during the military reconnaissance. The image is a poignant reminder of the human side of warfare, as soldiers and their animals took brief moments to rest and recharge amidst the chaos and uncertainty of the battlefield. The black and white composition adds to the timeless and historic feel of the photograph, transporting us back to a pivotal moment in the First World War. The exact location of the photograph is not explicitly stated, but it is believed to have been taken during the Salonika or Macedonian Front, where the French cavalry played a significant role in the campaign against the Central Powers. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of historical photographs, offering a unique perspective on the human experience of war during the early 20th century. The photograph is a testament to the enduring power of images to capture and preserve history, and serves as a reminder of the sacrifices and challenges faced by soldiers and their animals during the First World War. The identity of the photographer remains unknown, but their work continues to inspire and inform our understanding of this pivotal period in world history.
