EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library showcases a fascinating historical moment in military history. In the year 1898, a soldier equipped with a portable searchlight is shown using his advanced technology to detect an enemy in the darkness of night. However, instead of uncovering a threat to national security, he has stumbled upon something far less sinister - a poacher trapping a rabbit. The juxtaposition of the soldier's serious demeanor and high-tech equipment with the seemingly harmless act of poaching creates an intriguing narrative within this image. It serves as a reminder that not all encounters under the cover of darkness are necessarily dangerous or threatening. The use of lights and flares as weapons in warfare during this time period is highlighted through this photograph, shedding light on the innovative tactics employed by soldiers to gain an advantage over their adversaries. Overall, this print offers viewers a glimpse into the past, showcasing both the advancements made in military technology and the everyday occurrences that could occur amidst conflict. Mary Evans Prints Online has preserved this piece of history for us to reflect upon and appreciate for years to come.
