Description: | image: To the right of the composition with their backs turned to the viewer, stand two French poilus seen three-quarter
length. Dressed in full regulation kit, though without knapsacks, they watch a horse-drawn coach being loaded up with thirteen heavy
trunks and a set of golf clubs. A bourgeois family, parents and daughter, standing to the left look on as the coachman positions a trunk
on top of the already overburdened vehicle. The two horses stand patiently and in the background the Parisian skyline and a glimpsed view
of one of the Seine bridges. | Publisher: | http://www.iwm.org.uk | Subjects: | French Army civilian morale civilian personnel Military Personnel air raid precautions / shelters Bombardment of Paris 1918 Uniforms | Source: | Imperial War Museum | Creator: | Faivre, Jules Abel | Identifier: | http://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/item/o... | Go to resource |
