De L'Argonne aux Flandres; L'artillerie belge, le 28 septembre 1918
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph from the First World War, taken during the Hundred Days Offensive and the Meuse-Argonne offensive. The image, published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924, depicts a critical moment in the Belgian army's advance towards Flanders on September 28, 1918. The photograph captures the Belgian artillery, having progressed with the infantry, taking position in the taillis of the Houthulst Forest, outside the marshy terrain where they had been previously stabilized. The artillerymen are seen preparing their cannon, likely a large artillery gun, for the next barrage. The forest, located in the western part of West Flanders, Belgium, serves as a strategic location for the Belgian forces, providing cover and concealment from the enemy. The scene is a powerful representation of the military's determination and resilience during the final stages of the war. The soldiers, focused and disciplined, work together to position their artillery, ready to engage the enemy. The photograph encapsulates the concept of warfare during the First World War, with its emphasis on the importance of artillery and the role it played in the conflict. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during this global conflict, and the bravery and dedication of the armed forces. The image, though unsigned, is a valuable addition to any collection of historical photographs from the First World War.
