EDITORS COMMENTS
Notre Contre-Attaque du 11 juin 1918; le plateau de Belloy repris par nos troupes, le 11 juin (Our Counter-Attack of June 11, 1918; the Plateau of Belloy Retaken by Our Troops, June 11) is a poignant photograph from the First World War, taken from the publication "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, Paris, 1924. The image captures the aftermath of the fierce battle that took place on the Plateau of Belloy in Santerre, Hauts de France, France. The German spring offensive of 1918 was a critical turning point in the war, and the battle for the Plateau of Belloy was a significant engagement during this period. The photograph shows the successful counter-attack by the Allied forces, with French soldiers proudly standing in the foreground, having recently reclaimed the land from the Germans. However, the image is also a stark reminder of the devastating consequences of war. In the foreground, the lifeless body of a German soldier lies on the ground, a grim reminder of the human cost of the conflict. The black and white image, with its high contrast and sharp detail, conveys the raw emotion and intensity of the battlefield. The photograph is an important historical document, providing a glimpse into the events of the First World War and the sacrifices made by soldiers on both sides. It is a powerful reminder of the bravery and resilience of the troops, as well as the devastating impact of war on individual lives.
