EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Les Italiens a Gorizia; Les troupes italiennes passant en courant sur la Piazza Grande" (The Italians in Gorizia; The Italian troops passing in a rush on the Grand Square), was captured in 1916 during the sixth battle of the Isonzo in the First World War. The image is part of the "Collection de la Guerre IV. L'Illustration Tome CXLVIII. La Guerre Juillet, Aout, Septembre, Octobre, Novembre, Decembre 1916" (Collection of the War IV. The Illustration Volume CXLVIII. The War July, August, September, October, November, December 1916). The photograph shows a column of Italian soldiers, in uniform and armed, passing through the historic Piazza Grande (Grand Square) in Gorizia, a town in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region of Italy. The square, located at the foot of the old Venetian castle, is adorned with grand pillars and architectural details, offering a striking contrast to the military scene unfolding before it. The soldiers, in a rush, are likely on the move to respond to the ongoing battle of the Isonzo, also known as the sixth battle of the Isonzo, which took place between May and September 1916. The battle was a significant engagement in the Italian Front of the First World War, with both sides suffering heavy losses. The photograph offers a poignant glimpse into the past, capturing the tension and urgency of the war, as well as the enduring beauty of the European architectural heritage. It serves as a reminder of the historical significance of the events that transpired in this region during the early 20th century.
