V. Beach in British Hands, Gallipoli Campaign, First World War, 1915
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a historic moment during the Gallipoli Campaign of the First World War. Taken from the "Ship of Troy" known as the River Clyde, it offers a general view of V Beach at Sedd el Bahr as British troops arrived on the Peninsula. The image showcases an array of activity and preparations for battle. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see horses standing steadfastly alongside provisions and baggage that have been unloaded onto the beach. These animals played a crucial role in supporting military operations during this tumultuous period. Lieutenant Wilfred Park skillfully captured not only the physical elements but also conveyed a sense of anticipation among those present. Men dressed in military attire can be seen organizing supplies and equipment while others engage in conversations or observe their surroundings with focused determination. Sedd el Bahr, located in Canakkale Province, Turkey, served as an important landing zone for two Irish battalions during this campaign. This photograph provides us with insight into their arrival and sets the stage for what would become one of history's most challenging battles. Preserved within these black-and-white tones is a testament to human resilience amidst conflict and an enduring reminder of sacrifice made by those who fought bravely on foreign shores. It serves as both a historical artifact and a poignant tribute to all those involved in shaping our world today.
