EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of sheer bravery and determination amidst the chaos of war. Taken during the First Battle of the Aisne in World War I, it shows French infantry soldiers balancing precariously on a single girder remaining on a railway bridge over the River Aisne. The image is a testament to the incredible physical and mental strength exhibited by these soldiers as they make their perilous crossing. With every step, they defy gravity and risk their lives for their country's cause. The narrowness of the girder adds an extra layer of danger to this already treacherous situation. In this scene, we witness not only the individual courage but also the collective spirit that drives these men forward. They are united in their mission, fighting together against all odds. The composition highlights both the vulnerability and resilience of these soldiers. Against a backdrop of destruction and devastation, they stand tall with unwavering resolve. Their presence on this fragile structure symbolizes their commitment to push through obstacles and continue fighting for victory. Published in 1915 as part of The War Illustrated Album Deluxe, this photograph serves as an enduring reminder of sacrifice and heroism during one of history's most tumultuous periods. It stands as a tribute to those who fought bravely on all fronts, leaving an indelible mark on our shared human history.
