Le jour de gloire - General Montuori Leads the Italian Troops in Salute at the Tribune d'Honneur, 1919
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a striking photograph capturing a significant moment in post-World War I history. The image, created by an unknown photographer, was published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924. The scene unfolds on the Avenue des Champs-Élysées in Paris, with the iconic Arc de Triomphe serving as a grand backdrop. At the center of the photograph, General Luca Montuori, an Italian commander, rides his horse, Blade, at the head of his troops. The general raises his sword in a triumphant salute to the Tribune d'Honneur, a monument honoring the fallen soldiers of the war. The image encapsulates the spirit of victory and peace after the devastating First World War. Montuori, dressed in his military uniform, stands tall and proud on his horse, surrounded by his men, who also salute the tribune. The horses, too, display a sense of pride and readiness, their ears pricked forward. The photograph is a testament to the camaraderie and unity among the Allied forces during the post-war celebrations. The image's timeless quality, with its crisp lines and stark contrasts, makes it a powerful reminder of a pivotal moment in history. The photograph's provenance is unknown, but its historical significance is undeniable. It offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of hope and renewal following the end of a devastating global conflict. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of historical photographs or those focusing on military history, the First World War, or European history.
