German soldiers on the San River in Russia on July 17, 1916. The river flows beyond the trees in the distance.

A short translated part of the writing on the front side:

'From the trenches Jul 17 1916 — a small view from our trenches. Above the dam behind the forest there is the San river. Beside there are many fishermen and smokehouses. It's said that there have been made 50 tons of smoked fish each year.'
