La Turquie Succombe; Le camel corps de l'armee britannique de Palestine; un camp dans le desert, 1918
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph from the First World War era, showcasing a scene of the British Army's camel corps encamped in the desert of Palestine. The title of the image, "La Turquie Succombe" (France: Turkey Yields), suggests that this photograph was taken during the Sinai and Palestine Campaign, a significant military engagement in the Middle East that took place between 1915 and 1917. The photograph captures a moment of respite amidst the harsh desert conditions, as British soldiers tend to their camels, their tents arranged in neat rows behind them. The camels, with their humped backs and long, curved necks, stand patiently, their expressions conveying a sense of weariness and resignation. The soldiers, dressed in uniforms and armed with rifles, appear focused and determined, their gazes fixed on the task at hand. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the challenging conditions faced by soldiers during the First World War, particularly those serving in the Middle East. The use of camels as transportation in the desert was a common tactic employed by the British Army during this campaign, allowing them to traverse the harsh terrain and outmaneuver their Turkish opponents. This photograph was published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, a renowned French publication known for its coverage of current events and war reporting. The image is a valuable historical document, offering a glimpse into the daily life of soldiers during the First World War and the military tactics employed during the Sinai and Palestine Campaign. Despite the unknown creator of this photograph, it remains a powerful and evocative image, capturing the spirit and determination of the British soldiers as they faced the challenges of the desert campaign in Palestine during the First World War.
