EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the imposing presence of a captured German 105mm 98/09 light field howitzer during the First World War. The image, taken between 1914 and 1918, depicts the artillery piece resting against a rough, textured wall, its intricate details and massive size in stark contrast to the surrounding environment. Designed and manufactured by the renowned German industrial giant Krupp, this weapon was a formidable addition to any army's arsenal during the Great War. The 105mm 98/09 was a versatile and powerful piece of artillery, capable of firing both high explosive and shrapnel shells over great distances. Its distinctive carriage, with its large wheels and complex system of recoil mechanisms, is clearly visible in this photograph. The gun's barrel, with its intricate rifling and muzzle brake, is also prominently displayed. The capture of this German weapon by Allied forces would have been a significant achievement, symbolizing the shifting tide of the war and the determination of the Allied forces to gain the upper hand. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the brutal and destructive nature of war, as well as the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the engineers and soldiers who designed and operated these powerful weapons.
