EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning view of the Struma Valley, looking towards the Belachitza Mountains in Salonika, captures the breathtaking beauty of the Macedonian landscape during the early 20th century. The artist, 529456 Private Sidney Dennant Moss, meticulously painted this scene while serving in the military. Moss had an impressive military career, having served with the 95th Company Labour Corps, the 6th Battalion London Regiment (Royal Army Medical Corps), and the 84th Field Ambulance Territorial Force in France and Salonika during World War I. The sketch map on brown paper affixed to the bottom right corner of the print indicates the actual position of the artist when he painted this picture. The topographical features are clearly depicted, including the winding river Struma, the verdant valley, and the majestic Belachitza Mountains, also known as the Beles Mountains. This painting is a testament to the artistic talent and observational skills of Private Moss, who captured the essence of the landscape amidst the challenges of military life. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of war and adventure, while also showcasing the natural beauty of the region. It is a poignant reminder of the experiences of soldiers during World War I and the connection they formed with the lands they served in. This print is a valuable historical document, as well as a beautiful work of art, and a testament to the enduring power of nature to inspire and captivate.
