Coucher de Soleil dans la Plaine de L'Yser - Piece de 75 Allant Prendre Position
EDITORS COMMENTS
(Setting Sun in the Plain of the Yser: Piece of 75 Going to Take Position), 1914 is a poignant and evocative photograph by Georges Bertin Scott, capturing the moment just before the onset of the First World War's Battle of the Yser. The image, taken from "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919: Volume I" published in Paris in 1926 by L'Illustration, offers a glimpse into the quiet before the storm. The photograph depicts a group of French soldiers and their horses, harnessed to a field gun, preparing for battle against the encroaching German forces. The sun is setting in the background, casting a warm glow over the scene, as the soldiers and horses stand resolute against the backdrop of the Plaine de L'Yser in Flanders. The image is a testament to the courage and determination of the soldiers as they ready themselves for the impending conflict. The photograph also serves as a reminder of the scientific and military aspects of the war. The field gun, a key component of the horse artillery, is a symbol of the advanced weaponry used during the war. The soldiers, dressed in their uniforms, are a reminder of the various countries and armies involved in the conflict. The horses, an essential part of the military at the time, are a reminder of the animal labor that played a crucial role in the war effort. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the human element of war, as well as the scientific and military aspects. The setting sun and the quiet before the storm create a sense of foreboding, while the soldiers and horses prepare for the battle ahead. The image is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War and the impact it had on the world.
