EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, titled "Visites de M Albert Thomas aux usines de guerre; l'Exposition lyonnaise" (or "Visits of M Albert Thomas to the War Factories; The Lyon Exposition of 1914"), was created in 1916. The image showcases Albert Thomas, the French Under-Secretary of State for Munitions, addressing a crowd of workers from a tribune adorned with artillery shells. The event took place in Lyon, Rhone, France, during the First World War. Thomas, a prominent political figure and key player in the French war effort, is depicted standing tall and confident, speaking to the men with an air of authority. The workers, dressed in their industrial uniforms, listen intently to his words, their faces expressing a mix of concentration and curiosity. The background of the print is filled with the bustling activity of the war factories, with workers toiling away at their stations and machinery humming in the background. The photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into the home front of the First World War, highlighting the crucial role of the armaments industry in the war effort and the important connection between the political leadership and the working class. The image is a poignant reminder of the shared sacrifices and determination of the French people during this pivotal moment in history. The print is from the "Collection de la Guerre IV. L'Illustration Tome CXLVIII. La Guerre Juillet, Aout, Septembre, Octobre, Novembre, Decembre 1916" and is an invaluable addition to any collection focused on the First World War, the 20th century, or the history of France. The creator of the photograph is unknown, adding to its historical intrigue and mystery.
