This print titled "First World War 1914-1918: Like Valmy" captures a powerful moment during the battles around Ypres. The image depicts the French army charging with bayonets, accompanied by the resounding song of the Marseillaise. Published in "Le Petite Journal" on May 16,1915, this engraving showcases the unwavering courage and patriotism of the French soldiers. The scene is filled with intensity as these brave men face off against the German army. Their determination is palpable, symbolized by their raised bayonets and their voices united in song. The Marseillaise serves as a rallying cry, inspiring them to fight for their country's freedom. The artist behind this remarkable piece remains anonymous but has masterfully captured both the physicality and emotion of war. Every detail - from the hairy arms wielding bayonets to each soldier's expression - conveys a sense of urgency and dedication. This historical artwork not only immortalizes an important event in world history but also highlights themes such as national pride, sacrifice, and camaraderie amidst conflict. It serves as a poignant reminder of the bravery exhibited by those who fought during this tumultuous period. Now part of a private collection, this print allows us to reflect on one aspect of human nature that emerges even in times of war - our ability to find solace and strength through music and unity.
