EDITORS COMMENTS
(Our attack on 16 April 1917; the first assault wave leaving) is a poignant and powerful photograph from the First World War, taken from the publication "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, Paris, 1924. The image captures the raw emotion and intensity of the frontline as a wave of soldiers, their faces set with determination and resolve, prepare to leave the safety of their trenches and charge into the unknown. The year was 1917, and the First World War was entering its third year. The battlefields of France and Belgium had become a brutal and unforgiving landscape, where the line between life and death was often measured in inches. The soldiers in this photograph are a part of the assault wave, ready to engage the enemy and push the frontline forward. Their expressions reveal a mixture of anxiety, focus, and determination, as they prepare to leave the relative safety of their trenches and face the unknown horrors of the battlefield. The photograph is a testament to the bravery and sacrifice of the soldiers who fought in the First World War. It is a reminder of the human cost of war and the sacrifices made by ordinary men and women who answered the call to defend their country. The image is also a powerful reminder of the importance of remembering history and preserving the stories of those who lived through it. The photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of First World War history, military history, or photography. Its black and white composition adds to its timeless and evocative quality, making it a striking and thought-provoking addition to any wall. The unknown creator of this photograph has left us with an enduring image of the human spirit in the face of adversity, a testament to the courage and resilience of those who fought in the First World War.
