EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures General Ferdinand Foch, one of the most prominent figures of the First World War, in his military uniform as depicted in the Calendar for July 1916. The photograph, taken by renowned German photographer Hermann-Paul during the period of 1915-1916, offers a rare glimpse into the wartime environment of the 1st Great War. Foch, a French military officer, served as the Supreme Allied Commander during the final stages of the war. His strategic leadership played a crucial role in the Allied victory, particularly in the Battle of the Marne and the Second Battle of the Marne. This photograph, taken during the height of the conflict, underscores the intensity and gravity of the situation. The General's stern expression and unwavering gaze convey a sense of determination and resolve, reflecting the unyielding spirit of the Allied forces. The muted tones and somber atmosphere of the image serve as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during this pivotal moment in history. This photograph, now held by Liss Fine Art / Mary Evans Picture Library, provides a unique window into the past, allowing us to connect with the past and pay tribute to the men and women who fought in the First World War. The image is a powerful testament to the enduring legacy of General Foch and his role in shaping the course of history during the 1910s.
