Légende

'Captured German Trenches at Les Eparges', (1919). Allied troops with bodies of German soldiers at Les Eparges in northern France, scene from the First World War, 1914-1919. 'By a system of saps [covered trenches dug towards enemy positions] the German trenches were frequently mined, the craters formed by the upheaval being occupied and put into a state of defence and habitation. The next duty of the occupants was to bury the dead, who are seen piled along the bottom of the trench.' From "The History of the Great European War: its causes and effects", Vol. III, by W. Stanley Macbean Knight. [Caxton Pulishing Company, Limited, London, 1919]
