EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the early 20th century, specifically October 1914, during the tumultuous times of World War One. The image showcases a group of majestic heavy horses belonging to the Royal Horse Artillery being watered in Northern France. These magnificent creatures stand tall and strong, their muscular bodies glistening under the sunlight as they quench their thirst from a nearby river. Amidst the chaos of conflict, this snapshot offers a glimpse into a moment of respite for both man and beast. Soldiers can be seen tending to these loyal companions with care and admiration. It is evident that these horses played an integral role in supporting military operations during this time. The scene evokes a sense of tranquility amidst turmoil - nature's beauty juxtaposed against the harsh realities of war. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the profound bond between humans and animals even in times of great adversity. Preserved through time, this historical artifact was published on Page 7 of the Daily Mirror newspaper on October 9th, 1914. As we gaze upon it today, we are transported back to an era where horses were not only modes of transportation but also trusted allies on battlefields. Memory Lane Prints allows us to relive moments like these through their collection, offering glimpses into our shared past that continue to resonate with us today.
