EDITORS COMMENTS
Sur le front Italien; un coin du champ de bataille: le col de Lago Scuro" (On the Italian Front: A Corner of the Battlefield: The Dark Lake Pass), 1918 is a poignant and evocative photograph capturing the harsh realities of the Italian Front during World War I. The image, published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924, depicts a group of soldiers making their way through the treacherous terrain of the Dolomites, a mountain range in the eastern Alps. The soldiers, dressed in heavy winter gear and carrying their weapons, are seen trudging up a steep and icy mountain pass, with the ominous name of Col de Lago Scuro (Dark Lake Pass). The background is dominated by the rugged and snow-covered peaks of the Dolomites, their jagged edges casting long shadows over the battlefield below. The desolate and barren landscape, dotted with the occasional clump of trees, speaks volumes of the harsh conditions endured by the soldiers during the war. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the human cost of the conflict, with the tired and determined expressions on the faces of the soldiers conveying the physical and emotional toll of the war. The image is a testament to the bravery and resilience of the soldiers who fought on the Italian Front, and serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made during World War I. Despite the unknown creator of this photograph, its haunting imagery continues to resonate with viewers, offering a glimpse into the past and the realities of war.
