EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the arrival of one of the first British 9.2 inch Howitzers in Flanders during the First World War. Nicknamed "Mother," this heavy artillery piece was a formidable addition to the Allied forces in their efforts to counter the German advance. The image, taken between 1914 and 1918, shows the gun being transported through a muddy field, flanked by trees, as soldiers look on. The Howitzer, a type of long-range artillery weapon, was a key component of the British artillery arsenal during the war. Its large caliber and long range made it an effective weapon against enemy fortifications and troop concentrations. The arrival of the Howitzers in Flanders marked a significant turning point in the war, as the Allies were able to gain the upper hand in the artillery duels that characterized the conflict. This powerful weapon, with its ominous nickname, became a symbol of the determination and resilience of the British forces in the face of the great war time challenge. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War and the crucial role that artillery played in shaping the outcome of the conflict.
