EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of triumph and progression during the final stages of World War I, as British troops make their way through the Italian town of Sacile in October 1918. Following their victorious crossing of the Piave and Monticano rivers, the soldiers are seen passing over hastily-made pontoon bridges, symbolizing the relentless advance of the Allied forces. The Italian campaign of World War I, which began in May 1915, was marked by intense and bloody battles, with the Piave River serving as a significant front line. The successful crossing of this river by the British Expeditionary Force in late October 1918 marked a turning point in the war, leading to the eventual defeat of the Austro-Hungarian forces and the end of the conflict. The scene depicted in this photograph is one of jubilation and relief, as the soldiers move forward, leaving the chaos and carnage of the battlefield behind them. The town of Sacile, located in the Veneto region of northeastern Italy, is shown in the background, its streets filled with the detritus of war. Despite the destruction, there is a sense of hope and renewal in the air, as the Allied forces continue their march towards victory. This historical image, taken by an unknown photographer and available through Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the Great War and the ultimate triumph of the Allied forces. It is a testament to the resilience and determination of the soldiers who fought in this conflict and the enduring power of human spirit in the face of adversity.
