EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the determination and grit of the Italian artillery column during the Isonzo Offensive in 1917. The scene unfolds on the plateau of Vodice, east of Plave in Slovenia, Europe. The gradient of the mountainside is a formidable challenge as the men and their guns are carried uphill, a testament to the immense logistical effort required during wartime. Four soldiers work together, their faces etched with focus and concentration. The artillery column forms a striking contrast against the rugged terrain, a concept of power and force against nature. The Isonzo Offensive was a significant campaign during the First World War, fought between the Italian and Austro-Hungarian armies. The battle took place between May and November 1915 and resulted in heavy casualties on both sides. This photograph, taken from L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2 published by L'Illustration in Paris in 1924, offers a glimpse into the historical events of the time. The image invites us to reflect on the human cost of war and the incredible resilience of those who fought on the front lines.
