EDITORS COMMENTS
("The War to the Germans") at Place de la Concorde: les chevaux de Marly, 1918, is an evocative and poignant image captured during the final stages of World War I. The photograph, from "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" published by L'Illustration in Paris in 1924, depicts a sentry box at Place de la Concorde in Paris, with the iconic horses of Marly in the background. The title of the image refers to the ongoing conflict and the German enemy, emphasizing the intense national sentiment and the defensive stance of the French people during this period. The photograph captures the exterior of the Place de la Concorde, a historic square in the heart of Paris, which was transformed into a military stronghold during the war. The sentry box, a symbol of French defense and vigilance, stands proudly in the foreground, with the horses of Marly, a popular tourist attraction, visible in the background. The image is a powerful reminder of the impact of the war on everyday life in France and the determination of the French people to protect their country. The exact creator of this photograph is unknown, but it is a testament to the historical significance of the events it captures. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of World War I history, offering a unique perspective on the war and its impact on France. The contrast between the peaceful horses of Marly and the military sentry box creates a striking juxtaposition, highlighting the tension and uncertainty of the time. Overall, "La Guerre a L'Allemande" at Place de la Concorde: les chevaux de Marly, 1918, is a powerful and evocative image that captures the essence of the French spirit during the First World War.
