EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history during the first World War, showing reservists and wagons under requisition in Latour Maubourg between c1914 and c1915. The scene depicts the anticipation and preparation of armed forces as they mobilize for war, with horses pulling carts loaded with supplies along Boulevard de la Tour-Maubourg in Paris, France.
The black and white image exudes a sense of urgency and determination as civilians assist in the departure of these soldiers who are ready to serve their country. The aerial view provides a unique perspective of this pivotal moment, highlighting the scale of mobilization taking place during this tumultuous time.
George Graham Bain's skillful photography captures not only the physical aspect of this scene but also the emotions running high among those involved. The heritage art preserved in this glass negative offers us a glimpse into the past, reminding us of the sacrifices made by individuals during times of conflict.
As we reflect on this historical photograph, we are reminded of the bravery and resilience shown by these men who answered their country's call to duty. Their legacy lives on through images like these that document their service and sacrifice for future generations to remember.
