EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled 'L'Offensive ennemie dans les Flandres; au mont Kemmel, le 23 avril 1918: poste de commandement sur la pente que l'ennemi allait occuper à la suite des combats des 24 et 25 avril' (The enemy offensive in Flanders; on Mont Kemmel, April 23, 1918: command post on the slope that the enemy was to occupy following the battles of the 24th and 25th), was published in the French magazine L'Illustration in 1924. The image captures the aftermath of the First Battle of Kemmel, a significant engagement during the German Spring Offensive in the First World War. The photograph portrays the remnants of a command post, located on a slope in Mont Kemmel, Belgium. The scene is marked by the devastation of war, with shell damage evident in the surrounding terrain. The once pristine and orderly space now bears the scars of intense combat. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the brutal realities of warfare during this period. The exact creator of this photograph remains unknown, adding to its historical intrigue. The photograph was published as part of the 'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919' (Album of the War 1914-1919) in L'Illustration, a prestigious French publication known for its high-quality illustrations and reporting. The photograph's inclusion in this publication underscores its historical significance and importance in documenting the events of the First World War.
