EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures an historic moment during the First World War, as General Joseph Joffre, Commander-in-Chief of the French Army, welcomes General Luigi Cadorna and General Noel de Castelnau to the train station in Saint-Michel-de-Maurienne on November 7, 1916. The meeting took place sixteen kilometers from Modane and twenty-one kilometers from the Mont-Cenis tunnel. The image, published in "L'Illustration Tome CXLVII. La Guerre Juillet, Aout, Septembre, Octobre, Novembre, Decembre 1916," depicts the three generals standing on the quay of the train station. General Joffre, dressed in his military uniform, extends a warm greeting to his Italian counterparts, General Cadorna and General Castelnau. The trio's serious expressions and focused gazes convey the gravity of the ongoing conflict. The photograph is a testament to the international nature of the war and the importance of strategic alliances between nations. It also highlights the crucial role of military leaders in shaping the course of the war. The image is a valuable historical record of this significant encounter and is an essential addition to any collection focusing on the First World War or military history.
