EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the raw intensity and unrelenting nature of trench warfare during the Battle of the Lys in 1918. The photograph, taken on the Western Front in Belgium, documents the moment when German infantry make a desperate and determined leap from their trenches to attack the weary and homesick Portuguese Division. The date was September 29, 1918, during the final stages of World War I. The Great War, as it was then known, had dragged on for years, with both sides enduring unimaginable hardships. The soldiers in this photograph, huddled in their trenches, bear the marks of the cold, wet conditions that had long taken their toll. Yet, despite their exhaustion, they braced themselves for the onslaught that was about to come. The German infantry, driven by the relentless pressure of the Allied advance, launch themselves from their trenches with a fierce determination. Their faces are etched with determination and resolve, as they charge towards their adversaries. The contrast between the stillness of the Portuguese soldiers and the dynamism of the German attackers underscores the fluidity and unpredictability of trench warfare. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the brutal realities of warfare during this period. It offers a glimpse into the raw emotion and intensity of the Battle of the Lys, a pivotal moment in the history of the First World War. The image is a testament to the courage and resilience of the soldiers who fought in this conflict, and serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices they made for their countries.
