EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Le general Russe Lokhvitsky decore de la Croix de Guerre sur le front Francais; les trompettes russes sonnent pendant la ceremonie' (Russian General Lokhvitsky Decorated with the Croix de Guerre on the French Front; Russian Trumpeters Sounding during the Ceremony), was published in the French illustrated weekly magazine "L'Illustration" in 1916. The image captures a significant moment in the First World War as Russian General Nikolai Lokhvitsky receives the Croix de Guerre decoration from French authorities on the battlefield. Surrounded by a group of Russian soldiers and trumpeters, Lokhvitsky stands proudly, saluting the crowd as the trumpeters sound the call to attention. The Croix de Guerre, a military decoration established in 1915 by the French government, was awarded to soldiers and units for acts of gallantry and merit in the face of the enemy. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the international alliances and cooperation that defined the First World War, as well as the bravery and determination of the soldiers who fought on the front lines. The photograph's creator remains unknown, but it is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the wartime experiences of the Russian and French armies. The image's composition, with its focus on the general and the trumpeters, emphasizes the importance of leadership and morale in the midst of conflict. Overall, this photograph is a powerful testament to the human spirit and resilience during the First World War.
