EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Belgian Carabiners seen here falling back to Brussels after Louvain falls to the German Army" we are transported back in time to the tumultuous era of World War One. The image captures a poignant moment on the 19th of August, 1914, as Belgian soldiers retreat from Louvain and make their way towards Brussels. The scene is filled with a sense of urgency and determination as these brave men march through a picturesque countryside. Clad in their distinctive uniforms, rifles slung over their shoulders, they carry the weight of conflict on their backs - both literally with their backpacks and metaphorically with the burden of war. As they pass by a haystack that stands tall against an azure sky, one cannot help but feel admiration for these soldiers who continue to fight despite facing overwhelming odds. Their hats provide some respite from the scorching sun while adding an air of resilience to their appearance. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made during this dark chapter in history. It immortalizes not only the bravery and dedication exhibited by these troops but also highlights the devastating impact that war has on nations and individuals alike. Tom Grant's masterful capture allows us to reflect upon our shared past while honoring those who fought valiantly for freedom and peace.
