EDITORS COMMENTS
British War Memorials 1914-1918: Ypres (Salient) is a poignant and powerful collection of twenty-four photographs that pay tribute to the memorials erected in honor of the British soldiers who lost their lives during the First World War, specifically in the Ypres Salient region of Belgium. Published in Brussels by E.R.N. Thill and Commemorative Art, this booklet offers a unique and moving insight into the commemoration of the sacrifices made during the Great War. The images captured in this collection span various architectural styles, from ornate stone sculptures to simple crosses, and showcase the diverse locations where these memorials stand. Some are situated in quiet, rural settings, while others are nestled amidst bustling towns and cities. Each photograph is accompanied by a caption that provides historical context and background information about the memorial and the events it commemorates. The Ypres Salient was a strategic area of intense fighting during World War I, and the region saw some of the most brutal and prolonged battles of the war. The area was the site of several major offensives, including the Second Battle of Ypres and the Battle of Passchendaele. The memorials featured in this collection serve as a reminder of the immense sacrifice and loss that occurred during these battles. The photographs in British War Memorials 1914-1918: Ypres (Salient) offer a glimpse into the past, allowing us to reflect on the historical significance of these memorials and the events they commemorate. This collection is an important record of the commemorative art and military history of the First World War and serves as a testament to the enduring impact of this conflict on the people of Britain and Belgium.
