EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative vintage lantern slide depicts British troops huddled near the trenches during the First World War, in the northern French town of Arras. The soldiers, dressed in heavy winter coats and woolen hats, appear focused and determined as they prepare for the next advance. The trench in the foreground is a testament to the harsh realities of trench warfare, with its muddy walls and piles of discarded equipment. In the background, the rolling hills of the Arras countryside are visible, a stark contrast to the desolation of the battlefield. Arras, located in the Pas-de-Calais region, was a strategic target for both Allied and German forces throughout the war. The town changed hands several times, resulting in devastating battles such as the Battle of Arras in 1917. This photograph likely dates from that period, as the soldiers are seen wearing the distinctive khaki uniforms and steel helmets that were introduced in 1916. The lantern slide, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a rare glimpse into the daily life of British soldiers during the First World War. It serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and women who fought in this global conflict, and the enduring impact it had on the world.
