EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the various phases of the British Army's involvement in World War One. From top left, we are transported back in time to witness significant moments that shaped history. The first image depicts "The Retreat from Mons" in 1914, a pivotal event marking the beginning of the war and highlighting the resilience of British soldiers amidst adversity. Moving on, we encounter "Gallipoli" in 1915, where troops fought valiantly but faced devastating losses on foreign shores. The haunting image serves as a reminder of sacrifice and determination during this ill-fated campaign. Next comes "The Battle of the Somme" in 1916, an iconic moment etched into memory for its staggering casualties and fierce fighting. This photograph captures both the horrors endured by soldiers and their unwavering commitment to duty. In contrast, "Palestine" in 1917 presents a different theater of war with British forces engaging Ottoman Empire troops. It symbolizes Britain's efforts to secure strategic positions beyond European borders. We then delve into "Passchendaele" another brutal battle fought relentlessly throughout 1917 under treacherous conditions. This image encapsulates not only bravery but also highlights the immense challenges faced by soldiers on muddy fields turned into graveyards. Lastly, we witness "The Defence of Amiens" in 1918 - a turning point that marked Allied success against German forces during their last major offensive push. This powerful snapshot represents hope amidst darkness as victory drew
