Austrian soldiers on the way to hospital, Battle of the Isonzo, World War I, 1915
Austrian soldiers on the way to hospital, Battle of the Isonzo, World War I, 1915. After declaring war on the Austro-Hungarian Empire on 23 May 1915, the Italians launched an unsuccessful offensive in the Isonzo Valley in what is today Slovenia. Because of the predominantly mountainous terrain of the frontier, the Isonzo Valley was the only location suitable for large-scale operations and over the next two years a total of twelve battles were fought in the area, with around 500, 000 casualties.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the somber reality of war during World War I. Taken during the Battle of the Isonzo in 1915, it depicts a group of Austrian soldiers on their way to a hospital. The Italians had launched an unsuccessful offensive in the mountainous terrain of the Isonzo Valley, resulting in immense casualties. The image showcases the toll that warfare takes on individuals and nations alike. The wounded soldiers lie on stretchers, their faces etched with pain and exhaustion. Their journey to seek medical help is fraught with hardship, symbolizing the sacrifices made by those who serve their country. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and emotion to this historical moment frozen in time. It serves as a reminder of the horrors endured by these brave men who fought for Austria-Hungary during this tumultuous period. As we reflect upon this photograph from Der Grosse Krieg in Bildern, we are reminded of the devastating consequences of war and its impact on humanity. It stands as a testament to both resilience and tragedy, encapsulating one chapter among many from World War I's brutal history.
