EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, a group of Mounted Anzac troops are seen making their way through the arid desert landscape near Gaza during the First World War. Dated 1917, this image captures the determination and resolve of these Australian soldiers as they forcefully advance through the Wadi Ghuzzi, a narrow valley, to outflank the Ottoman Turkish and German forces defending the city of Gaza. The Anzac Mounted Division, a key component of the Egyptian Expeditionary Force, played a crucial role in the Middle Eastern theatre of the Great War. In this instance, they employed a rapid detour across the desert to outmaneuver the enemy and secure a strategic advantage. The troops are seen here mounted on horseback, their horses picking their way carefully through the rocky terrain, their faces set with focus and concentration. The desert backdrop of this photograph serves as a stark reminder of the harsh conditions endured by the soldiers during their campaign in Palestine. The sun-scorched sands, the barren landscape, and the seemingly endless expanse of sand dunes would have presented a formidable challenge to the Anzac troops. Yet, they pressed on, driven by their commitment to the war effort and their desire to secure victory. This photograph is a poignant testament to the bravery and resilience of the Anzac troops during the First World War. It offers a glimpse into the challenging conditions they faced in the Middle East and the strategic maneuvers they employed to outwit their enemies. The image stands as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by these soldiers and the important role they played in the history of the 20th century.
