EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time during the First World War, circa 1916, as members of the Royal Field Artillery tended to their guns, their faces etched with determination and focus. The horses, commandeered from farms and stables across Europe, stood patiently by their sides, their coats glistening with sweat and mud. The scene is reminiscent of the Victorian and Edwardian eras, with the soldiers' uniforms and equipment harkening back to an earlier era. The lantern slide, an antiquated technology used for projecting images, further adds to the vintage feel of the image. The Royal Field Artillery played a crucial role in the war effort, providing mobile artillery support to the British army. The horses were essential to their operations, allowing them to quickly move their guns to new positions and respond to the ever-changing battlefield. Despite the harsh conditions and the constant danger, the soldiers and their horses worked tirelessly, their bond a testament to the resilience and determination of those who served during the Great War. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and animals during this pivotal moment in history. The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection, from which this image is taken, is a valuable resource for historians, researchers, and anyone interested in the history of the First World War. The collection offers a unique perspective on this period, providing a glimpse into the lives of the soldiers and civilians who lived through it.
