EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage lantern slide depicts the poignant remains of a World War I ammunition lorry, discovered in the Forest of Nieppe on the 8th of July, 1918. The forest, located in northern France, served as a crucial logistical hub during the war, with its dense foliage providing cover for troop movements and supply lines. The ammunition lorry, a vital component of the military machine, lies abandoned and weathered, a testament to the harsh realities of the battlefield. The remnants of its metal frame and wheels are scattered, while the wooden body has decayed, leaving only a faint outline of its original form. The rusted metal and faded paint tell a story of the relentless march of time and the passage of history. The photograph, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, captures the essence of the past, offering a glimpse into a bygone era. The image is reminiscent of the Victorian and Edwardian eras, with their emphasis on exploration and discovery, as well as the early days of photography. The use of a lantern slide further adds to the nostalgic feel, transporting us back to a time when the world was a more mysterious and wondrous place. The discovery of this ammunition lorry in the Forest of Nieppe serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the Great War, and the enduring power of history to captivate and inspire us. The photograph invites us to reflect on the past, and to consider the lessons it holds for the present and the future.
