EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a pivotal moment in the history of Baku, Armenia, during the final days of the First World War. The image shows the approach to the main quay in the city, with British troops making their way down the dusty street towards the water's edge. Having marched for miles, these soldiers of the Dunsterforce had recently arrived in Baku as part of the Caucasus Campaign, a British military intervention aimed at securing resources and preventing the spread of Bolshevism in the region. The Armenian-Azerbaijani War, which had been raging since May 1918, had left the city in chaos. The conflict, which arose from the collapse of the Russian Empire and the subsequent struggle for power in the Caucasus, had resulted in widespread destruction and suffering. The arrival of the British troops brought a temporary respite, but the situation remained volatile, with various factions vying for control of the strategically important oil fields and transportation routes. Despite the challenging conditions, the soldiers can be seen here making their way through the city with determination and resolve. The photograph offers a glimpse into the harsh realities of war time Baku, and the indomitable spirit of the men and women who lived through it. The image is a poignant reminder of the complex history of the Caucasus region, and the enduring impact of the First World War on the people of Armenia and Azerbaijan.
