EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the harsh realities of war transportation during the First World War. In the foreground, two sturdy bullocks strain against their harnesses, pulling an Austrian cart loaded with supplies alongside the Save River. The cart's wooden wheels churn up the muddy terrain, leaving a trail of wet prints in their wake. In the background, a determined Austrian soldier, dressed in the uniform of the k.u.k. (kaiserlich und königlich) army, cracks his whip to urge the animals forward. The soldier's steely gaze is fixed on the animals, his expression a testament to the unyielding demands of the battlefield. The Save River, a vital waterway for logistical support during the war, mirrors the rugged determination of the soldiers and animals, as they labor to keep the Austro-Hungarian war effort moving. The date on this photograph is 1916, a year marked by intense fighting on various fronts, making this image a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War.
