EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative vintage lantern slide depicts the aftermath of a gas attack during the First World War at the battlefields of Serre and Thiepval. The scene is one of desolation and destruction, with soldiers in masks and protective clothing making their way through the muddy trenches. The use of gas as a weapon during the war marked a significant turning point in the conflict, with the first large-scale use of chlorine gas by the Germans against the French troops at Second Ypres in April 1915. The British responded in kind, and the use of poison gas became a tragic and devastating aspect of trench warfare. The soldiers in this image are likely recovering from the effects of a gas attack, their faces obscured by masks to protect against further exposure. The ruins of the battlefield in the background serve as a stark reminder of the destruction and loss inflicted by the war. This poignant image, taken from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the harsh realities of life in the trenches during the First World War.
