EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the courage and determination of the Turkish cavalry during the First World War. The image, dated between 1914 and 1918, depicts a group of Ottoman soldiers mounted on horses, their faces set with focus and resolve as they prepare for battle. The Turkish cavalry played a significant role in the Ottoman army during this time, and their skill and bravery on horseback were renowned. The men in this photograph are dressed in their military uniforms, with their weapons at the ready. Some wear felt hats, while others have headscarves or fez caps. Each soldier appears to be in good condition, a testament to their physical fitness and training. The horses, too, are well-groomed and appear strong and agile. The photograph was likely taken during a training exercise or parade, as the soldiers are not in the midst of battle. Nevertheless, the sense of tension and anticipation is palpable, with the riders poised to move out at a moment's notice. The background is blurred, drawing the viewer's attention to the central figures of the soldiers and their horses. The First World War was a time of great upheaval and change for the Ottoman Empire, which was then known as the Sublime State of Turkey. The Ottoman army underwent significant modernization during this period, and the Turkish cavalry was no exception. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the lives of these brave soldiers and their horses during a time of war.
