EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, Belgian cavalry troops pass through the quaint village of Sommergem (Somerghem), located in the East Flanders region of Belgium, during the early stages of the First World War on October 8, 1914. The mud-splattered horses and soldiers, dressed in heavy winter uniforms, are seen making their way through the narrow, cobblestone streets, as the sun casts a warm glow over the scene. The 2nd Scots Guards, identifiable by their distinctive tartan kilts and feathers in their helmets, can be seen on the right, having halted during their march from Bruges to Ostend. The horses, weary from the long journey, stand still, their breath visible in the crisp autumn air. The soldiers, many with determined expressions, prepare to move on, their weapons at the ready. The scene is one of both beauty and tension, as the peaceful village is momentarily disrupted by the passing of the Belgian military, on the move to defend their homeland against the invading German forces. The muddy roads and war-time conditions serve as a stark reminder of the harsh realities of the Great War, which would continue to ravage Europe for the next four long years.
