La Grande Attaque du Carso (August 1916) - Service de Ravitaillement d'Eau pour les Troupes
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph from the First World War era, specifically from the Collection de la Guerre IV of "L'Illustration" Tome CXLVIII. The image, dated 1916, depicts a horse-drawn water wagon making its way through a rough and rocky terrain, with soldiers and men in uniforms accompanying it. This scene unfolds against the backdrop of a war-torn landscape, with the presence of trenches and the ominous clouds in the sky adding to the somber atmosphere. The photograph offers a glimpse into the logistical challenges faced by the armed forces during the Battle of the Isonzo, also known as the Sixth Battle of the Isonzo or the Battle of Gorizia, which took place between August and September 1916. The Austro-Hungarian Empire and Italy clashed in this brutal conflict, with both sides suffering heavy casualties. The horse-drawn water wagon in the photograph plays a crucial role in the survival of the soldiers on the front lines. The men are seen carrying jerricans, likely to collect water from the wagon, which would then be transported to the troops in the trenches. The image underscores the importance of water supply and the role of horse-drawn vehicles in the transportation of essential supplies during wartime. The photograph, with its raw and unfiltered portrayal of the realities of war, is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the soldiers and the logistical efforts required to sustain them during the First World War. The identity of the creator of this evocative image remains unknown, adding to the mystery and intrigue surrounding this powerful historical document.
