EDITORS COMMENTS
Return to the Somme, 1916" is a poignant lithograph depicting the scene of soldiers making their way back to the Somme valley following the intense and brutal battle that took place between July and November of 1916. The battle of the Somme, specifically the attack on German positions at Pozieres, was a significant engagement in which the Australians played a crucial role. This evocative print, created circa 1919, captures the weary and somber mood of the soldiers as they return from the battlefield. Their faces are etched with the marks of war - fatigue, worry, and the weight of experience. The landscape behind them is equally desolate, with the rolling hills and fields of the Somme valley bearing the scars of the relentless fighting. The image is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the soldiers during the Battle of the Somme. It also serves as a testament to the enduring spirit of those who fought, as they return to their comrades and continue the arduous journey towards victory. The artist of this powerful lithograph is William Henry Dyson, an Australian war artist who captured the essence of the Anzac experience during World War I. Dyson's work is a valuable historical record of the sacrifices made by the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) during the war. This print is part of the March of the Women Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, a vast archive of historical images that offers insight into the social, political, and cultural history of the past. It is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made during the Battle of the Somme and the enduring spirit of those who fought.
