EDITORS COMMENTS
(Crushed by the Numbers; The Belgian Cavalry), captured in a photograph from 1914, presents a poignant and powerful image of the First World War's brutal realities. The scene is set at the Western Front, with Belgian cavalry soldiers and their horses, constantly engaged in combat with the enemy, slowly exhausting their progress. The photograph, published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume I" by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924, depicts a lone rider, his face etched with determination and exhaustion, leading his horse through a desolate landscape. The ground beneath them is strewn with debris, trees and plants reduced to mere stumps, a stark reminder of the destruction wrought by war. In the background, a line of soldiers on horseback can be seen, their uniforms disheveled, their expressions weary. The German enemy, unseen but ever present, had relentlessly pressed forward, forcing the Belgian cavalry to slow their advance. The horses, once proud and powerful, now appear tired and worn, their coats matted with sweat and dirt. The photograph is a poignant testament to the sacrifices made by soldiers and their animals during the First World War. The image, though haunting, serves as a reminder of the unyielding spirit of those who fought, and the indomitable will that drove them to continue, even in the face of overwhelming odds. The photograph's creator remains unknown, adding to the mystery and intrigue surrounding this powerful and evocative image. It stands as a poignant reminder of the human and animal cost of war, and the indelible mark it leaves on the landscape and those who experience it.
