Notre entrée à Metz; Les troupes françaises defilent, 19 novembre 1918

EDITORS COMMENTS
(Our Entry into Metz; French Troops Parade, 19 November 1918) is a captivating photograph from the first world war era, taken on the esplanade of Metz, France. The image, published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924, captures a significant moment in history as the French troops celebrate their liberation of Metz, a city in the Alsace-Lorraine region that had been under German control since 1871. At the foot of the statue of Marshal Michel Ney, the brave soldier of the Battle of Austerlitz, known as "Le Brave des Braves" or "The Bravest of the Brave," stands Marshal Philippe Pétain, who had been elevated to the dignity of Marshal of France just a few days prior. The scene is filled with a sense of triumph and patriotism as horse-mounted officers and soldiers, as well as infantrymen and field guns, march in formation. The photograph features several notable figures, including Marshal Michel Ney, the 1st Duke of Elchingen and Prince of Moskva, who is depicted looking on from the side. The image also includes a horse-drawn artillery piece, adding to the military atmosphere. The soldiers, both mounted and on foot, display a range of expressions, from determined to jubilant, reflecting the relief and pride they felt in their victory. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the end of the first world war and the liberation of Metz, a city that had been longed for by the French people. The image is a testament to the bravery and resilience of the French military and the importance of their victories during this period.
