EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the scene of British army horses being exercised on a sandy beach in Northern France during World War 1, in the year 1916. The image offers a glimpse into the daily life of the military during this pivotal period in history. The horses, their coats glistening with sea spray, are led by their handlers, their heads held high as they trot along the shoreline. The vast expanse of the sea stretches out behind them, the waves crashing against the shore. The soldiers, dressed in their uniforms, stand nearby, watching over their charges and ensuring their obedience. The tranquil setting is a stark contrast to the chaos and turmoil of the war that was raging just beyond the camera's view. Horses played a crucial role in the military during World War 1, serving as transportation, messengers, and pack animals. They were essential for the movement of troops and supplies, particularly in the early stages of the war before the widespread use of motorized vehicles. The horses were often transported to the front lines by sea, and this photograph likely depicts them being given a break from the rigors of battle to be exercised and cared for on the beach. The image is a poignant reminder of the human-animal bond that existed during this time, as well as the logistical challenges and hardships faced by the military during the war. It also highlights the importance of rest and recovery, even in the midst of conflict. Today, this photograph stands as a testament to the history of the First World War and the sacrifices made by both humans and animals during this time.
