EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the cramped and intense interior of a French tank during the First World War, in 1917. The image offers a rare glimpse into the confined space where the crew of this land-ship carried out their vital duties in the heat of battle. In the center, gunners man their heavy artillery, focused intently on their targets, while on the right, machine-gunners prepare to defend against enemy attacks. One machine-gunner is seen firing laterally, protecting the tank's side, while the other remains alert, ready to engage at a moment's notice. The stifling conditions inside the tank are palpable, with the dimly lit interior and thick layers of dust and grime coating every surface. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the courage and determination of the soldiers who operated these formidable machines during the First World War. The date of this image is October 16, 1917, and it provides a unique insight into the daily life and challenges faced by the crew of these early tanks. This photograph is part of the extensive archives of Mary Evans Picture Library and is available for rights-managed licensing.
