EDITORS COMMENTS
(Bremenil on the Frontier, Sharing the Same Fate as This Convoy of Wounded), 1914, is a poignant and powerful photograph from the early days of the First World War. The image, taken in the village of Bremenil, Lorraine, France, captures a moment in time as a long line of wounded soldiers, some supported by their comrades, are being transported through the village on a bullock cart. The soldiers, dressed in their military uniforms, are a testament to the brutal reality of warfare during this period. The photograph is part of "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919: Volume I" published by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1926. The caption below the image reads, "En Alsace et sur la Frontiere; Bremenil, que traverse ce convoi de blesses, a partage le meme sort" (Bremenil on the Frontier, Sharing the Same Fate as This Convoy of Wounded). This phrase underscores the shared experience of the soldiers, both the wounded and those helping them, as they endure the hardships of war. The photograph provides a glimpse into the logistical challenges of moving wounded soldiers during wartime. The use of oxen and a cart for transportation highlights the importance of animal power and road transport during this era before the widespread use of motorized vehicles. The image also serves as a reminder of the human cost of war, with the wounded soldiers representing the countless lives affected by the conflict. The photograph is a valuable historical record of the First World War, providing insight into the experiences of soldiers during this period. Its haunting imagery continues to resonate, serving as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during times of war.
