La Baie de Suvla et les Falaises d'Anzac; La Plage de Suvla - à gauche, Lala Baba (1915),
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating watercolor print depicting the scenic yet historically significant landscape of Suvla Bay during the First World War. The image, from the "Collection de la Guerre IV," was published in "L'Illustration Tome CXLVIII" in 1916. The painting showcases the tranquil waters of the Aegean Sea, with Suvla Bay nestled between the cliffs of Anzac. To the left, the shoreline is dotted with the remnants of Lala Baba, a small village that served as a strategic location for the Anzac forces during the Gallipoli Campaign. The cliffs, referred to as Mont Chocolat by the British, rise majestically in the background, their rugged terrain a stark contrast to the calm waters below. The scene is a poignant reminder of the military actions that unfolded in this area during the Dardanelles Campaign, a major operation launched by the Allied forces to secure a sea route to Constantinople and ultimately help end the war. The Anzac troops, a combination of Australian and New Zealand forces, played a significant role in the landings at Suvla Bay in August 1915. The print, with its rich colors and intricate details, offers a glimpse into the geography of the region, which was a crucial battleground in the Ottoman Empire during the early 20th century. The image serves as a testament to the historical significance of this location and the brave soldiers who fought there. The identity of the artist remains unknown, but their work captures the essence of a pivotal moment in world history, providing a visual connection to the events of the First World War and the impact it had on the world.
