Devant l'envahisseur; Beaucoup, qui ne possedent qu'un chien comme bête de trait ont du abandonner derrière eux tous leurs biens
EDITORS COMMENTS
- Translation: "Before the invader; Many, who only had a dog as a draft animal, had to leave behind all their possessions" This evocative photograph, titled "Devant l'envahisseur; Beaucoup, qui ne possedent qu'un chien comme bête de trait ont du abandonner derrière eux tous leurs biens" (Before the invader; Many, who only had a dog as a draft animal, had to leave behind all their possessions), was captured during the tumultuous period of the First World War in 1914. The creator of this poignant image remains unknown, but it was published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume I" by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924. The photograph depicts a scene of forced migration and displacement, with a man and a woman, accompanied by their children, walking along a cobblestone road. Their faces are etched with fear and determination as they pull a cart filled with their meager belongings. The only animal in their company is a dog, harnessed to the cart, serving as their draft animal. The image captures the stark reality of the situation for many civilians during the war, who were forced to abandon their homes and possessions and flee before the advancing German army. The photograph is a powerful reminder of the human cost of war and the resilience of those who were forced to endure its hardships. The image is also a testament to the enduring bond between humans and animals, with the dog faithfully following its owners, even in the most challenging of circumstances. The cobblestone road, a common thoroughfare in many European towns and cities during the early 20th century, adds to the sense of timelessness and historical significance of the photograph. Overall, this image is a poignant and evocative reminder of the experiences of civilians during the First World War and the enduring power of the human-animal bond.
