EDITORS COMMENTS
Le 14 juillet 1916 a Paris; les "Bag-pipers" ecossais" (July 14, 1916 in Paris; the Scottish "Bag-pipers") is an evocative photograph capturing a moment in history during the First World War. The image, from the Collection de la Guerre IV of "L'Illustration" (The Illustration), shows a group of Scottish bagpipe players proudly marching through the streets of Paris on Bastille Day, 1916. The soldiers, dressed in their military uniforms, are playing their bagpipes with determination and pride, their faces set in concentration as they perform for the cheering crowds. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the international nature of the conflict, with troops from various countries coming together to fight for their respective nations. The Scottish regiment's presence in Paris on this national holiday would have been a source of pride for the Scottish soldiers and a symbol of unity for the French people. The photograph also serves as a testament to the power of music to bring people together, even in the midst of war. The bagpipes, with their distinctive sound and rich history, have long been associated with Scotland and its military traditions. The sight and sound of these pipers marching through the streets of Paris would have been a memorable experience for both the soldiers and the spectators. Despite being a century old, this photograph continues to resonate with viewers today, offering a glimpse into the past and reminding us of the enduring power of music and the human spirit.
