EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the early 20th century, a Mortier de 270 mm modele 1885 is being loaded at the Bois de Givry, south of Auxerre. The image, captured circa 1917, showcases the intricate process of preparing this massive muzzle-loading mortar for action. The Mortier de 270 mm modele 1885 was a French military weapon used extensively during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Its impressive size and power made it an essential component of the French artillery arsenal. The photograph is presented as a left-hand (LH) stereo pair, arranged for a crossed eye viewer. This technique allows the viewer to experience a three-dimensional effect when observing the image, providing an immersive and unique perspective of the scene. In the foreground, soldiers are seen meticulously loading the mortar, while in the background, the tranquil landscape of the Bois de Givry unfolds. The image also reveals a glimpse of the technological advancements of the era, with a flight aircraft or aeroplane visible in the sky above. The advent of aeronautical transportation revolutionized warfare, and this photograph serves as a testament to the intersection of the old and the new. The Mortier de 270 mm modele 1885, a relic of the past, stands in stark contrast to the futuristic aircraft soaring overhead. This image offers a fascinating glimpse into the military landscape of the early 20th century, a time of transition and innovation.
