EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment during the First World War as Italian Bersaglieri soldiers, distinguished by their unique fez-like headgear, engage in a tactical drill in the desert landscape of Palestine. Dated to October 1917, these light infantry troops were an integral part of the Allied forces in the Middle East theatre. The Bersaglieri were known for their agility and marksmanship, making them an effective force in the challenging terrain of Palestine. In this image, the soldiers are seen in a focused and determined stance, preparing to advance with their rifles at the ready. The arid, sandy environment, dotted with rocks and low-lying vegetation, adds to the sense of isolation and intensity. The soldiers' expressions convey a mixture of concentration and anticipation, as they prepare to execute their attack. The Bersaglieri's distinctive headgear, known as the 'coppino', is a defining feature of their uniform. The fez-like hat, adorned with a red tassel and a black band, is a symbol of their Italian heritage and pride. The soldiers' uniforms are completed with a chestnut-brown tunic, knee-length trousers, and heavy boots, all designed to protect them from the harsh desert conditions. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the Italian soldiers during the First World War, as they trained and prepared for the challenges that awaited them on the battlefield. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by these brave men and the important role they played in the larger conflict.
