EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the scene at the German encampment in the village of Mouland, near Vise, Belgium, during the early days of World War I in August 1914. The rapid advance of the German army was largely facilitated by the motor vehicles that allowed them to outmaneuver their opponents. In the hollow towards the left side of the image, Belgian prisoners are seen under the watchful eye of their German guards. The village civilians, dressed in their Sunday best, observe the scene from a safe distance, their expressions a mix of fear, curiosity, and resignation. The German soldiers, with their military equipment and determined posture, dominate the foreground. The invasion of Belgium, a neutral country, was a significant turning point in the war and marked the beginning of a long and brutal conflict that would last for four years. This historical photograph offers a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the disruption it brought to the lives of civilians and soldiers alike.
