EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia photograph captures a poignant moment during the First World War, showcasing the unwavering dedication of soldiers in tending to their wounded comrades. Titled "Bringing down wounded Serbians from a mountain battle: a mule cacolet" this image portrays an English Photographer's documentation of the Serbian Army's valiant efforts. In this scene, we witness the ingenious use of a mule cacolet, an improvised stretcher suspended between two sturdy animals. The injured soldiers are carefully lowered down from treacherous mountain terrain, highlighting both the physical challenges faced by these brave individuals and the resourcefulness employed to overcome them. The composition exudes solemnity as it emphasizes not only the severity of war injuries but also showcases humanity's commitment to providing medical aid amidst chaos. These selfless acts demonstrate that even in times of conflict, compassion and care prevail. As we delve into history through this remarkable print from The Illustrated War News (September 1916), our hearts are stirred with admiration for those who risked their lives on both sides of the battlefield. This evocative image serves as a reminder that behind every statistic or casualty report lies real people enduring unimaginable pain and suffering. Preserved within The Stapleton Collection and now part of Bridgeman Images' Private Collection, this photograph immortalizes an essential aspect of World War I – medical assistance – while honoring those who dedicated themselves to saving lives amid one of history's most devastating conflicts.
