EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Sergeant Somers holding back the enemy by bombing them when a barricade was being raised" captures a moment of extraordinary heroism during the tumultuous times of World War I. The litho artwork, created by John Harris Valda, pays tribute to Sergeant James Somers, an Irish soldier from the 1st Battalion, Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers. In this powerful image taken on July 1st or 2nd in Gallipoli in 1915, we witness Sergeant Somers fearlessly defending his comrades against advancing enemies. With sheer determination etched across his face and explosives in hand, he stands as a symbol of bravery amidst the chaos of trench warfare. Sergeant Somers' actions exemplify the unwavering courage displayed by countless soldiers during the Great War. His selfless act not only halted the progress of enemy forces but also inspired those around him to fight with renewed vigor. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made on battlefields like these. It immortalizes moments that encapsulate both the horrors and triumphs experienced by soldiers during World War I. Through this print, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand one man's incredible display of valor. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from The Stapleton Collection held within a private collection today, let us remember all those who fought bravely for their countries and honor their memory forevermore.
