EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a pivotal moment in history during World War One. Taken by an anonymous French photographer in the 20th century, it showcases the determination and bravery of French infantry as they advance through farmland in north-eastern France. The soldiers, dressed in their military uniforms, march resolutely across the fields towards an unknown destination on the Western Front. The monochromatic tones add a sense of timelessness to this image, emphasizing the enduring impact of war. Each soldier's face remains hidden from view, leaving us to ponder their individual stories and sacrifices made for their country. As we gaze upon this print from a private collection owned by Ken Welsh, we are reminded of the immense scale and devastation caused by World War One. It serves as a poignant reminder of those who fought valiantly on both sides of the conflict. This powerful photograph is not only a testament to the courage displayed by these soldiers but also highlights the harsh realities faced by those involved in warfare. It stands as a historical document that allows us to reflect upon our shared past while honoring those who served during this tumultuous period.
