EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures Kaiser Wilhelm II, the German Emperor (1859-1941), during a visit to the Western Front in 1915, where he observed the use of poison gas in the First World War. Dressed in his full military regalia, complete with helmet and heavy greatcoat, Wilhelm stands next to an unidentified army officer. The emperor's intense gaze is fixed on the scene before him as soldiers in gas masks prepare to advance, their pointed rifles at the ready. The use of poison gas in warfare was a controversial and morally questionable tactic, and this image serves as a stark reminder of the brutal realities of trench warfare during this period. The emperor's presence on the front lines underscores the determination of the German military to gain the upper hand in the conflict, even if it meant employing such devastating and inhumane methods. This powerful photograph offers a unique glimpse into the harsh and unforgiving world of the First World War, and the role of its leaders in shaping the course of history.
