EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, French soldiers diligently work to remove a barricade in a Belgian town during the early days of World War I. The image, captured in August 1914, depicts a pivotal moment as the French troops make way for the entry of French cavalry into the town, which had been fortified with barricades to impede and delay German Uhlan raiding parties. The soldiers, dressed in their uniforms and armed with shovels and picks, focus intently on their task, their determined expressions reflecting the gravity of the situation. The barricade, constructed of cobblestones and debris, stretches across the street, its purpose to protect the townspeople from the invading German forces. In the background, the sound of hooves can be heard as the French cavalry approaches, ready to engage the enemy and defend the town. The scene is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers during the First World War and the bravery and resilience of the troops in the face of adversity. This powerful image, taken by renowned photographer Matania, is a testament to the courage and determination of the French forces during the early days of the war.
