EDITORS COMMENTS
(State of War; Our men depart with garlands, their equipment adorned with flags), 1914 is a poignant and evocative photograph that captures the essence of the early days of the First World War. The image, taken from "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume I" published by L'Illustration in Paris in 1924, depicts a horse-drawn artillery piece being led to the front lines. The soldiers, dressed in their finest uniforms and adorned with garlands of flowers, proudly ride alongside their mounts, their faces a mix of determination and apprehension. The scene is set against the backdrop of a rural landscape, with trees and fields in the distance, and the ominous presence of guns and other military equipment, hinting at the impending conflict. The image captures the sense of optimism and patriotism that characterized the early days of the war, as men and animals were sent off to the front with flowers and flags as symbols of hope and support. The photograph is a powerful reminder of the human cost of war, as well as the role of animals in military conflict. It also serves as a testament to the bravery and sacrifice of the soldiers and their horses, who played a crucial role in the First World War, particularly on the Western Front. The photograph is a valuable historical document, providing a glimpse into the past and shedding light on the experiences of the men and animals who fought in the First World War. The photograph is of unknown origin and the creator remains unidentified, adding to its mystery and intrigue. It is a poignant reminder of the human experience of war and the sacrifices made by soldiers and their animals during the First World War. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of historical photographs or military memorabilia, and is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of the First World War or the role of animals in military conflict.
