The Indian Army Camp on the Race Course at Marseilles, France - September 1914
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print by Horace Grant takes us back to a significant moment in history during World War One. The image showcases the 3rd Lahore Indian Division of the Indian Army, stationed on the race course in Marseilles, France. It was taken in September 1914 when tensions were high and conflict loomed over Europe. The scene depicts a sprawling camp set against a backdrop of vast sea views. Tents dotting the landscape create an organized yet temporary living space for these brave soldiers who had traveled far from their homeland to fight alongside their allies on the Western Front. The photograph not only captures the military presence but also offers glimpses into daily life within this war zone. Soldiers can be seen engaged in various activities – some conversing with comrades, others tending to equipment or simply taking respite amidst challenging circumstances. Grant's composition skillfully portrays both strength and vulnerability as these men prepare themselves for battle. Their unified spirit is evident as they face uncertainty with determination and resilience. As we reflect upon this historical snapshot, it serves as a poignant reminder of sacrifice and bravery exhibited by those who fought selflessly during World War One. This print allows us to pay homage to all those involved while preserving their memory for generations to come.
