EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Une semaine de combats sur la rive gauche de la Meuse; 14 mars (13 heures) -- Preparation d'artillerie allemande sur le village de Cumieres' (A week of fights on the left bank of the Meuse; 14 March (13 hours) -- Preparation of German artillery on the village of Cumieres), is a poignant reminder of the intense and brutal battles that took place during the First World War. The image, from the 'Collection de la Guerre IV. L'Illustration Tome CXLVII. La Guerre Janvier, Fevrier, Mars, Avril, Mai, Juin 1916' (Collection IV. The Illustration Volume CXLVII. The War January, February, March, April, May, June 1916), depicts the meticulous preparation of German artillery on the village of Cumieres, located on the left bank of the Meuse River in France. The soldiers are seen diligently loading and positioning their guns, while the ominous backdrop of smoke and explosions in the distance signify the imminent barrage and bombardment that will soon follow. The use of 'curtain fire' and 'explosions' is evident, as the soldiers take cover behind the protective shield of their artillery. This powerful image encapsulates the raw and unyielding nature of trench warfare during the Battle of Verdun in 1916. The photograph, although the creator remains unknown, serves as a poignant and haunting reminder of the sacrifices made during this pivotal moment in world history.
