EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the somber backdrop of the aftermath of the First World War, a unique and poignant procession unfolds in the streets of Milan, Italy, in 1920. The sight before us is that of Italian dogs of war, proudly adorned with decorations and ribbons in honor of their exceptional military services. These brave canines, who had faithfully served their country alongside their human comrades in arms, are now being celebrated in a picturesque procession that pays tribute to their heroism and unwavering loyalty. The image captures the essence of a grateful nation honoring its animal heroes, who had played a crucial role in the war effort. The dogs, with their proud and alert expressions, seem to exude a sense of pride and accomplishment, as they pass through the cobblestone streets of Milan, surrounded by onlookers who have come to pay their respects. This historical photograph, taken by renowned British illustrator, Howard Robert Ashley, also known as "Felix," or "Felix Topolsky," and published by the British publication, The Sphere, is a poignant reminder of the important role animals played in the Great War. The image is a testament to the deep bond between humans and animals, and the unwavering courage and loyalty that transcends the battlefield. As we reflect on the sacrifices made by these Italian dogs of war, we are reminded of the enduring legacy of the animals who served alongside their human counterparts, and the profound impact they had on the course of history during the First World War.
