Description
Contemporary World War One illustration of a cavalry charge by British troops in France. At the beginning of WW1 all of the combatant armies still retained substantial numbers of cavalry and there were a number of traditional cavalry actions in the opening battles of the conflict. Later, as the front lines stabilised, a combination of barbed wire, machine guns and rapid fire rifles proved deadly to mounted troops and horse cavalry units tended to be converted to infantry. By the end of the war cavalry had virtually no useful role left to play - the days of cavalry warfare had effectively been consigned to the history books. The image appeared in The War Illustrated periodical in May 1917. The artist was Stanley L Wood (1866 – 1928).

Description
Contemporary World War One illustration of the Royal Munster Fusiliers raiding a German trench in France during the Battle of the Somme (July 1 - November 18 1916). Entitled "The Sprig of Shillelagh and Shamrock So Green", it depicts the Irishmen using Shillelaghs to bludgeon the enemy in hand to hand combat. The Royal Munster Fusiliers, who had the Shamrock as their badge, were a regular Irish infantry regiment of the British Army originally formed in 1881 and eventually disbanded in 1922. The image appeared in The War Illustrated periodical in September 1916. Artist unknown.

Description
Portrait photo circa 1930s of Marshal Henri Philippe Pétain (1856 - 1951) - the French General who went from being the "Hero of Verdun" to the "Traitor of Vichy". Pétain was acclaimed for his military leadership in WW1, particularly during the Battle of Verdun in 1916, and his reputation helped lead to his appointment as Head of State of Vichy France when Germany defeated the French in 1940 during WW2. Collaboration between the Vichy administration and Germany resulted in Pétain being tried and convicted of treason in 1945 and sentenced to death, a sentence subsequently commuted to life imprisonment.
