EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage lantern slide depicts a poignant moment during the Battle of the Scarpe near Monchy-le-Preux on 11th April 1917, during the First World War. The Battle of the Scarpe was a significant engagement in the Third Battle of Arras, which took place between the British Expeditionary Force and the German Army. In this image, weary and battle-scarred soldiers are seen taking a brief respite from the intense fighting. The scene is set against the backdrop of a desolate and devastated landscape, with the remnants of destroyed buildings and trees in the distance. The soldiers, dressed in their Victorian and Edwardian uniforms, huddle around a makeshift fire, their faces etched with fatigue and concern. Some hold their weapons, while others rest their heads in their hands or lean against their comrades for support. The image captures the raw emotion and human cost of war, as these brave men momentarily pause to find solace and comfort in each other's company. The Battle of the Scarpe was a hard-fought victory for the Allies, but it came at a great cost, with thousands of lives lost on both sides. This poignant lantern slide serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by the soldiers who fought in the Great War. The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection, from which this image is taken, is a valuable resource for historians, researchers, and anyone interested in the history of the First World War. The collection contains thousands of rare and unique photographs, offering a unique insight into the people, places, and events of this pivotal period in history.
