EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of transformation as light draught horses are broken in and prepared for harness at an Army Remount Depot during the First World War, in 1915. The horses, with their powerful muscles and expressive eyes, seem to embody the raw energy and potential that would be harnessed for the immense hauling and pulling tasks required by the British military during the Great War. The scene takes place at an Army Remount Depot, a crucial establishment that ensured the continuous supply of well-trained horses to the front lines. The horses, mostly Clydesdales, Shires, and Suffolks, were carefully selected, broken in, and trained for various roles, including hauling artillery, ammunition, and supplies, as well as pulling carriages and ambulances. The process of breaking in the horses was a delicate and time-consuming one. Trainers would start by accustoming the horses to the harness and gradually desensitizing them to the sounds, smells, and sensations associated with military life. The horses were then taught to respond to commands and work in unison, creating a cohesive and effective team. This photograph offers a glimpse into the history of the vital role horses played during the First World War, and the dedication and expertise required to prepare them for their crucial duties. The image is a poignant reminder of the unique bond between humans and animals, and the power of training and teamwork in the face of adversity.
