EDITORS COMMENTS
Le Bois-lès-Trépied, 15th July 1916: A poignant and historic moment in the First World War is captured in this photograph, featuring Major Alfred Kingsley Lawrence of the 19th Battalion/2nd Tyndeside Pioneers, Northumberland Fusiliers. Commissioned on August 26, 1893, Lawrence served valiantly during the Great War, and this image was taken on the fateful day of July 15, 1916, during the Battle of the Somme. The location is Le Bois-lès-Trépied, a small forested area in northern France that became a significant battleground during the war. Major Lawrence, dressed in his military uniform and wearing a monocle, stands at the edge of a clearing, gazing intently into the distance. The expression on his face suggests a deep concentration, possibly as he contemplates the strategic plan for the upcoming battle or assesses the current situation on the ground. The image is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers like Major Lawrence during the First World War. The photograph is a topographical painting, providing a historical record of the events that unfolded on that day in July 1916. The image is part of the extensive collection of military photographs available from Mary Evans Prints Online, offering researchers, historians, and enthusiasts a unique and valuable resource for studying the history of the First World War and the experiences of soldiers like Major Alfred Kingsley Lawrence.
