EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of quiet respite in the early morning of the Belgian cavalry during the chaotic opening days of World War I in 1914. The image shows a regiment of Belgian cavalry soldiers gathered around their horses, providing them with water from a nearby stream. The horses, their coats glistening with morning dew, drink thirstily, their heads lowered in concentration. The soldiers, dressed in their distinctive uniforms, work efficiently to ensure their mounts are well-prepared for the challenges of the day ahead. The First World War, which began on July 28, 1914, marked a significant turning point in world history. Belgium, a neutral country, was invaded by German forces on August 4, 1914, and this photograph provides a rare glimpse into the daily life of the Belgian cavalry during this tumultuous time. The horses were essential to the mobility and effectiveness of the cavalry, and their care was a top priority. The photograph's muted colors and soft lighting create a sense of tranquility, in stark contrast to the impending violence and destruction that was about to engulf Europe. The soldiers' focused expressions and the horses' attentiveness to their watering troughs underscore the importance of this moment of reprieve in the midst of the chaos of war. This historical photograph is a poignant reminder of the human connection to animals in times of conflict and the importance of the daily routines and care that sustained the soldiers and their mounts during the First World War.
