EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Un match militaire de football a Paris; L'equipe du 20e corps en tenue militaire' (A military football match in Paris; The team of the 20th Corps in military uniform), was published in the French illustrated weekly magazine 'L'Illustration' in 1916. The image captures a moment of respite during the tumultuous period of World War I, as soldiers from the 20th Corps take a break from the front lines to engage in a friendly football match in the heart of Paris. The photograph offers a unique glimpse into the daily life of the armed forces during wartime, showcasing the camaraderie and morale that existed amongst the troops. The soldiers, dressed in their military uniforms, are seen in various stages of play, with some in the act of scoring a goal, while others eagerly await their turn. The location of the match, a lush green field in the city, serves as a stark contrast to the desolate battlefields and trenches that were the reality for these men. The photograph is part of the 'Collection de la Guerre IV' from 'L'Illustration', which chronicles the events of the war from July to December 1916. The exact identity of the photographer remains unknown, but their work provides an invaluable record of this pivotal moment in history, offering a poignant reminder of the human spirit that endured even in the face of unimaginable adversity.
