EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the chaos and destruction of the 20th century battlefield, a French courier dog named César defies gravity and earthly bounds, leaping effortlessly over a weary soldier in a trench. The year was unspecified, but the trenches bear testament to the brutal realities of war. With the telephone systems in the front line trenches out of commission, these courageous canines were relied upon to deliver crucial messages and supplies between units. César, a courser breed, was bred for its speed and agility, making it the perfect companion for the treacherous terrain of the Western Front. His winged feet seem to spurn the earth as he soars through the air, a symbol of hope and resilience in the face of adversity. The image captures a moment of unspoken camaraderie between man and beast, as the soldier looks up in awe and admiration at the dog's remarkable feat. This powerful photograph, taken in the 20th century, serves as a poignant reminder of the vital role animals played in the wars of the past, and the enduring bond between humans and their faithful companions.
