EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant moment in history, showcasing the decoration of a French soldier with the prestigious Legion d'Honneur. Taken around 1910, it immortalizes Private Haberthur, who demonstrated exceptional bravery during combat at Moul el Bacha in Morocco on July 12th, 1910. In this image, we see Private Haberthur standing tall alongside his comrades Sergeant Millot and Privates Schmidt and Hoffmann. His eyes are bandaged as a result of injuries sustained during battle, symbolizing the sacrifices made by these courageous men in service to their country. The photograph not only highlights the valor and courage displayed by these soldiers but also sheds light on France's colonialism era. It serves as a reminder of the brave individuals who fought for their nation's interests abroad. The presence of medals adorning Private Haberthur's uniform further emphasizes his remarkable achievements on the battlefield. The Legion d'Honneur stands out prominently among them, representing one of France's highest military honors. Through this monochrome artwork captured over a century ago, we glimpse into an era defined by warfare and dedication to duty. It is an evocative portrayal of sacrifice and camaraderie that resonates even today. This print from Heritage Images offers us a window into history while honoring those who have served their countries with unwavering bravery.
