German field artillery and its crew firing, a village under fire and burning in the distance. 'In treue fest!' — in unbreakable loyalty — affirms the unshakeable bond between Germany and Austria-Hungary. A sketch dated February 9, 1915 F. Huber, pencil with colored pencil highlights. Huber was evidently with the First Bavarian Army Corps (K.B. 1 Armeekorps — Königlich Bayerisches Armee-Korps) which was fighting in position on the Somme from October 10, 1914 to October 6, 1915.
