Marseille en Fête - Australians Parade before the Prefecture of Marseille with Small French Flags on their Rifles, 1916
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph that transports us back in time to the heart of the First World War. The image, created by an unknown photographer, is taken from the "Collection de la Guerre IV" and was published in "L'Illustration Tome CXLVII," a French publication that documented the war from January to June 1916. The photograph captures a moment of camaraderie and unity between the French and Australian armed forces. A group of Australian soldiers, dressed in their military uniforms, are seen marching in a parade before the Prefecture of Marseille. Each soldier holds a rifle adorned with small French flags, symbolizing the strong alliance between the two countries during the war. The image is a testament to the international cooperation that defined the First World War, as soldiers from various nations came together to fight a common enemy. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers during this period. The soldiers' determined expressions and focused gazes convey a sense of purpose and resolve, while the flags and rifles add an air of solemnity and seriousness to the scene. The image also offers a glimpse into the historical context of the time, with the ornate architecture of the Prefecture of Marseille serving as a backdrop to the soldiers' march. Overall, this photograph is an invaluable historical document that captures the spirit of the First World War and the enduring bond between France and Australia.
