EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Field of Oil Wells: Romania's Hidden Battlefield during the Great War, 1916-1917" 2.. This evocative image captures a unique and often overlooked aspect of the First World War: the continued operation of Romania's oil industry amidst the chaos and destruction of the battlefield. Circa 1916-1917, during the height of the Romanian campaign, this photograph reveals a scene of oil wells stretching across a vast, sun-scorched landscape. The rust-colored pumps and derricks stand tall against the backdrop of a clear, blue sky, their industrial silhouettes a stark contrast to the surrounding war-torn terrain. 3. Background: Romania, a relatively new European nation, had only gained its independence in 1877. With vast oil reserves, it quickly became a significant player in the global oil market. By the time the First World War broke out, Romania's oil industry was thriving, making it a valuable strategic asset for the Allied Powers. As the Central Powers invaded Romania in 1916, the oil fields became a focal point of the conflict. 4. Impact: The photograph offers a glimpse into the complexities of war, where industrial progress and the pursuit of resources continued alongside the devastating clashes between armies. It also highlights the role of Romania's oil industry during the war, which played a crucial part in the Allied war effort. Despite the harsh realities of war, the image underscores the resilience and adaptability of human ingenuity and the relentless march of industrial progress.
