Victoire Italienne; dans le secteur du Montello - vagues italiennes s'élancant pour la contre-attaque
EDITORS COMMENTS
(Italian Victory; in the Montello sector: Italian waves charging for the counter-attack), 1918 is a powerful and evocative image from the Second Battle of the Piave River during World War I. The photograph captures a pivotal moment in the Italian army's successful defense against the Austro-Hungarian forces. The scene is set on the battlefield, with the ground churned up by the passage of soldiers and artillery. In the foreground, a group of Italian soldiers, dressed in their olive-green uniforms, are seen charging forward, their determined expressions etched on their faces. The waves of soldiers, reminiscent of a cresting wave, are ready to overtake the enemy lines. In the background, the smoke from explosions rises into the sky, a stark reminder of the violence and destruction of war. The shell fire, a constant threat, adds to the sense of urgency and danger. The Montello sector, located in the Veneto region of Italy, was a crucial battleground during the war, and this photograph captures the intensity and bravery of the Italian soldiers as they fought to defend their country. The photograph is from "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" published by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924. The creator of the image is unknown, adding to the mystery and intrigue of this powerful and moving photograph from a time of conflict and upheaval in world history. The print collector is fortunate to own a piece of history that captures the spirit and determination of the Italian army during the First World War.
