| description | From the foundation of the French photographiciety (Société française de photographie) in 1854, photography developed as a new social phenomenon, both in its uses for information, in parallel with drawing, and in the framework of family life. Thanks to the development of lightweight pocket cameras, shortly before the First World War, the war could be photographed in new dimensions and avoiding all idea of censorship. Photographers are no longer only the official ones of the army’s service (Section photographique de l’armée) but also, and above all, simple soldiers. It is their private photographs that interest us in this article. What these images show us are the war as the soldiers experienced it, but for the present-day observer they also offer evidence about heritage being transformed by the fighting or by the presence of troops. Photography, as a form of heritage in its own right, bears witness to many aspects of lives of the men but also to the natural and built landscapes in which they found themselves. |
