EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment when General Paul-Emile Félix Joseph Sarrail, Commander of the French Army in Salonika (Thessaloniki), Greece, sets off on a small steam launch named Saint-Louis, leaving behind the Provence on October 26, 1916. The First World War was raging in Europe, and the Balkans had become a major theater of operations. Sarrail, a seasoned military leader, had arrived in Salonika in July 1915 to take command of the Allied forces, which included French, British, Russian, and Serbian troops. The General's determination and strategic acumen proved crucial in the defense of Salonika against a relentless Turkish and Bulgarian offensive. In the photograph, Sarrail, dressed in his full military uniform, is seen confidently heading towards the Saint-Louis, surrounded by officers and crew members. The French tricolor flag flutters proudly at the stern of the launch, symbolizing the nation's unwavering commitment to the war effort. Thessaloniki, then known as Salonica or Salonika, was a vital strategic location due to its proximity to the Aegean Sea and the important railways that connected it to the rest of Europe. The city had been under Ottoman rule for centuries before being captured by the Greeks in 1912. The photograph offers a glimpse into the complex history of the region and the pivotal role played by General Sarrail and the Allied forces in defending it during the First World War.
