EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph captures the intensity of the third Battle of Champagne during World War I. The scene depicts an artillery bombardment west of the Argonnes in September 1915, showcasing the destructive power unleashed upon this war-torn landscape. The artist, Hans W. Schmidt, skillfully portrays the chaos and devastation that engulfed both sides of this brutal conflict. The smoke-filled sky is illuminated by explosions as shells rain down on the battlefield. The soldiers, dressed in their uniforms representing different armies involved in this great war, are shown amidst a sea of craters and debris. Published in 1922 as part of Hindenburg's collection by Daterlandischer Derlag C U Weller Berlin, this litho serves as a historical document capturing a significant moment in time. It transports us back to an era when nations clashed and lives were forever changed. Through its intricate details and powerful imagery, this print reminds us of the horrors endured by those who fought on these battlefields. It pays tribute to their bravery while also serving as a reminder of the futility and devastation caused by war. As we gaze upon this engraving from our private collection today, let it serve as a solemn reminder to cherish peace and strive for understanding among nations - so that such scenes may never be repeated again.
