EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a column of trucks on the historic Voie Sacree, located in Verdun, northern France during the years 1914 to 1918. The Voie Sacree, also known as the Sacred Way, earned its name after World War I due to its crucial role in sustaining supplies during the intense Battle of Verdun. This image is part of a remarkable series of glass plate stereoview images that depict various scenes from this significant period in history. The photograph showcases an avenue lined with men and soldiers amidst their transportation vehicles. These brave individuals played an essential role in ensuring vital supplies reached their destination despite the challenging circumstances they faced. The monochrome setting adds a sense of nostalgia and solemnity to this poignant moment frozen in time. Verdun's significance as a location for this snapshot cannot be overstated; it symbolizes both resilience and sacrifice. As we observe these unknown faces captured by The Print Collector, we are reminded of the countless lives affected by war and conflict throughout history. Let us reflect upon this powerful image that encapsulates not only the road transport used during World War I but also pays tribute to those who selflessly served their country on the sacred path between Bar-le-Duc and Verdun.
