Artistic and dramatic c. 1918 photograph of the massive and muddy trenches of the Western Front as soldiers dug into the earth for survival during the bloodiest war in history. A lone soldier takes a break to smoke a cigarette while his buddy appears to be doing laundry while foxholes and even crude graves paper int he background. Stamped on the back by a famous French photographer named Cliche Patras, this is one of the only images from WWI we have ever seen that has an artistic feel to it and captures the horrors of trench warfare to this magnitude. This could easily be hanging in a museum or gallery as a work of art.
