EDITORS COMMENTS
In the muddy and waterlogged trenches of Treasure Island, two British soldiers pause momentarily in the midst of the relentless downpour of 1917. The atrocious weather conditions had turned the battlefield into a watery grave, with soldiers often finding themselves waist-deep in the churning, murky waters. In this poignant moment, one soldier, Jock, calls out to his comrade, drawing attention to a half-franc coin he had lost in the trench the previous week. The coin, a small glimmer of hope amidst the chaos and despair, serves as a reminder of the human spirit's resilience and determination even in the harshest of conditions. Will Owen's evocative painting, titled 'Two British soldiers in a waterlogged trench,' captures the raw emotion and grit of the soldiers during World War 1, as they endured the unforgiving elements and the unyielding tide of battle. This powerful image, published by the Illustrated London News Ltd. in 1917, is a poignant testament to the indomitable spirit of the soldiers who fought in the trenches and the enduring legacy of the war.
