EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the battlefields of World War I in northern France. Taken between 1914 and 1918, during the tumultuous years of the Great War, this image showcases a group of horses in Somme-Tourbe. These majestic animals played an essential role in supporting soldiers on both sides of the conflict. The monochrome composition adds a sense of timelessness to this powerful scene. The horses stand tall amidst a backdrop marked by destruction and chaos, symbolizing resilience and unwavering strength. Their presence serves as a reminder that even amid the horrors of war, life continues. As we gaze upon this photograph from The Print Collector's collection, we are reminded of the bravery displayed by these noble creatures who dutifully carried soldiers into battle. They were not mere tools but loyal companions who shared their riders' burdens and fears. This image captures an important chapter in history – the Battle of Somme – one of the bloodiest battles ever fought with devastating casualties on both sides. It stands as a testament to human perseverance amidst unimaginable adversity. Let us honor those who served during World War I, including these gallant horses whose contribution often goes unacknowledged. May their memory live on through photographs like this one that capture their spirit forevermore.
