EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the harsh and unforgiving terrain of the Italian Alps during the First World War, a determined soldier carefully navigates the new military road, ensuring the safety of the passing artillery. Dated back to 1916, this evocative image captures the raw and unyielding nature of the battlefield, as well as the resilience and grit of the soldiers tasked with transporting the heavy weapons through the treacherous mountain passes. The soldier's focus is fixed on the timbers beneath the wheels of the horse-drawn artillery carriage, checking for any signs of displacement caused by the weight of the gun. The steep incline and rugged terrain make the journey a challenging one, but the soldiers press on, driven by the necessity of the war effort. The scene is one of stark contrasts - the pristine white snow juxtaposed against the mud-splattered uniforms and equipment of the soldiers, the majestic beauty of the mountains contrasting with the grim reality of war. The horses, too, are a testament to the hardships of the soldiers, their coats glistening with sweat as they strain under the weight of the artillery. This powerful image, taken by renowned war artist Fortunino Matania, offers a glimpse into the harsh realities of the Italian front during the First World War. The soldiers' unwavering determination and the raw power of the artillery are a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during this pivotal moment in history.
