EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Inter-allied Support; Assembling on the Place d'Armes in Nice, automobile trucks destined for the Italian front," was captured by the Italian photographer Pelanda in 1917. The image offers a unique aerial perspective of the Place d'Armes in Nice, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France, where a large gathering of automobile trucks is taking place. The trucks, loaded with essential supplies and equipment, are preparing for deployment to the Italian front during World War I. The solidarity and unity of the Allied forces are palpable in this scene as men in military uniforms and civilians work together to load and secure the cargo. The background is filled with a sea of people, adding depth and context to the image. The trucks, lined up neatly, are a testament to the logistical efforts required to support the troops on the front lines. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the preparations and sacrifices made during the First World War. It was originally published in the French illustrated magazine "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924. The image is a valuable historical document, providing insight into the military and logistical aspects of the war and the role of the Allied forces in supporting each other during this pivotal moment in history.
