EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from the First World War era, titled "Les defenses de Salonique inspectees par le general Sarrail; au second plan, le general et les officiers qui l'accompagnent, nos poilus creusant les lignes de tranchees" (The Defenses of Salonika Inspected by General Sarrail: In the Background, the General and the Officers Who Accompany Him, Our Poilus Digging the Trenches), Hubert Jacques captures a moment of intense focus and determination as French military leaders assess the defenses at the Salonika Front in 1916. At the center of the image stands General Maurice Paul Emmanuel Sarrail, dressed in military uniform and intently examining the terrain. Surrounding him are other officers, also in uniform, who also scrutinize the landscape. In the background, soldiers can be seen digging trenches, their backs bent against the harsh conditions of the battlefield. The setting is the Macedonian front, a critical battleground in the Salonika Campaign, which lasted from 1915 to 1918. Sarrail, a prominent French military leader, was instrumental in the defense of this front, leading his troops with unwavering resolve and strategic acumen. The photograph, published in L'Illustration Tome CXLVII. La Guerre Janvier, Fevrier, Mars, Avril, Mai, Juin 1916, offers a glimpse into the harsh realities of wartime, with soldiers toiling in the trenches and military leaders assessing the situation on the ground. The image is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War and the bravery and resilience of those who served.
