Description: | H S WILLIAMSON 1918 (very faint)
image: a column of British infantrymen march along a dead straight road through the Somme region. The men march in regular
rows of four and the monotony of the title is also emphasised by a telegraph line, two lines of trees and a line of tree stumps on the
horizon, which all run parallel to the marching soldiers. There is also a line of observation balloons running across the sky. Three graves
marked by white wooden crosses are lined up alongside the road in the immediate foreground, with a few more in the distance. The road
appears to be reinforced with wooden struts. | Publisher: | http://www.iwm.org.uk | Subjects: | Bomb Damage Death memorial 8th Battalion Western Front 1914-1918 Landscape 14th Division Western Front 41st Brigade British Army 1914-1918 British Army King's Royal Rifle Corps Military Personnel First World War roads | Source: | Imperial War Museum | Creator: | Williamson, Harold Sandys | Identifier: | http://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/item/o... | Go to resource |
