The First World War is so commonly overshadowed by the Second World War. This war was also less well documented by photography. The relatively smaller amount of WWI war photographs still carry the heavy and important message of that conflict that shaped our world.

​

In the shadow of WWII, and now over 100 years in the past, WWI is thus seldom referenced in modern culture. This is so unfortunate because of the immense sacrifice and dedication made by its participants. I hope that my renewal of these images will help us to fully appreciate the reality of the lives and experiences of the subjects in these photographs.
