EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the British positions before the First Battle of Ypres during the tumultuous years of World War I. Taken in 1914, this historical image showcases the strategic layout of the British army in Flanders, Belgium. The photograph is a testament to the bravery and determination displayed by these soldiers as they prepared for battle on October 29-31. The significance of this momentous event is further emphasized by its inclusion in "The Great World War - A History" edited by Frank A Mumby. Published around 1920, this volume serves as a valuable resource for understanding one of humanity's most devastating conflicts. The map-like quality of this image provides viewers with an insight into the complex nature of warfare during that time period. It highlights not only physical positions but also represents a concept: how armies were organized and deployed on the front line. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from The Gresham Publishing Company Ltd archives, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by those who fought on these very grounds. This print allows us to connect with history and pay homage to all those involved in World War I – both known and unknown.
