EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the stern and resolute visage of General Paul Marie Cesar Pau (1848-1932), a prominent French military leader during World War I. Born in 1848, Pau rose through the ranks of the French army, eventually commanding the army of Alsace during the tumultuous years of the Great War. The image, taken in 1932, shows Pau in full military regalia, with his chest adorned with an impressive array of medals and decorations. His piercing gaze and firm jawline convey a sense of determination and unwavering commitment to his country and his soldiers. Pau's tenure as commander of the army of Alsace was marked by significant battles and strategic victories, particularly during the Battle of Mulhouse in 1914. His leadership and tactical acumen were instrumental in repelling German advances and protecting French territory. Despite his military successes, Pau's career was not without controversy. He was known for his harsh discipline and uncompromising approach to military life, which earned him both admiration and criticism. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of Pau's legacy as a French military hero and a testament to the indomitable spirit of the soldiers who served under his command during the First World War. The image is a valuable historical artifact, offering a glimpse into the past and the sacrifices made by those who fought to preserve their nation's freedom and sovereignty.
