EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of life on the Western Front during World War One, as two British soldiers take a moment of respite in a wooded area. Dressed in sheepskin jackets and soft caps, they are well-prepared for the harsh conditions of the battlefield. One soldier is seen using binoculars to scan the horizon for enemy movements, while the other takes aim with his SMLE rifle, ready to defend against any threat. The haversack slung over one soldier's shoulder contains essential supplies for their long hours in the field. This image is part of a collection of 193 official photographs taken by various photographers during the war years, providing a unique and poignant glimpse into the experiences of the soldiers who fought on the Western Front. Dated circa 1915, this photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the bravery and determination of the Allied forces during this pivotal period in world history.
