World War One photos from the air
The advancing French as seen from a low-flying aeroplane: in individual trenches and moving. Aerial photographs of French soldiers in World War One on the Western front: infantry advancing through harvest fields; infantry advancing in an open plain; with a German ammunition-wagon destroyed by a shell, first-line French troops in a roadside ditch before Fere-en-Tardenois; and French troops dug-in in individual trenches during an advance - some resting, others still digging, others waving their signalling panels to the aviator (main picture). Date: 1918

EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative collection of aerial photographs captures the raw reality of the Western Front during World War One, as seen from the vantage point of a low-flying aeroplane. The images depict the advancing French infantry in individual trenches and on the move, making their way through harvest fields and open plains. In one photograph, the destruction of a German ammunition-wagon is evident, a stark reminder of the brutal nature of the conflict. French troops are shown in various stages of advancement, some digging in roadside ditches before Fere-en-Tardenois, while others rest or signal to the aviator above. These images offer a unique perspective on the war, providing a bird's-eye view of the battlefield that was not accessible to most soldiers or civilians at the time. Captured in 1918, these photographs offer a poignant glimpse into the final year of the war and the sacrifices made by the French military.
