EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative vintage lantern slide depicts British infantry soldiers advancing towards the German lines during the Battle of Morval, which took place on September 25, 1916, near the village of Ginchy in France. The First World War battle is part of the larger Battle of the Somme, one of the bloodiest conflicts in human history. The soldiers, dressed in heavy uniforms and carrying rifles, appear determined and focused as they move forward, likely towards the sound of gunfire and the cacophony of war. The muddy terrain and barren trees in the background add to the somber and desolate atmosphere of the battlefield. The image captures the raw courage and resilience of the British soldiers during this pivotal moment in the war. The photograph is part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, offering a unique glimpse into the past and a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during this early 20th century conflict.
