EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled 'Ensemble du terrain des offensives franco-britanniques au Nord et au Sud de la Somme' (Collection de la Guerre IV, The Illustration Tome CXLVIII, La Guerre Juillet, Aout, Septembre, Octobre, Novembre, Decembre 1916), offers a striking depiction of the battlefields during the Allied offensives in the Somme region of France in 1916. The map, created by an unknown artist, illustrates the ground gained by the French and British forces up to September 5, with advancements marked in grey. On this day, the Allies successfully captured Berny, located southeast of Estrees, and made progress between Chaulnes and Chilly. The print vividly portrays the strategic positions and lines of the Western Front during this pivotal moment in the First World War. The map, with its intricate details and meticulous shading, transports us back to the Picardy region of France, where the intense battles of the Somme offensive unfolded. This historical artifact serves as a poignant reminder of the relentless struggle between the German and Allied forces during the Great War.
