World War I — War Graves of the Western Front Wall Map (1919)

Lines of supply and lines of loss—this 1919 map gathers the Western Front across France and Belgium into a single, sober field of remembrance. Railways, roads and canals trace the machinery that fed the war; small red dots mark the cemeteries where its cost remains. Part archive, part vigil, it brings a century-old geography of service and grief to the wall—measured, respectful, and quietly powerful.

Why it captivates

A comprehensive Western Front overview—France and Belgium shown together for clear context of the campaign.
Cemetery locations at a glance—the red-dot symbology makes patterns of sacrifice immediately legible.
Infrastructure and movement—railways & stations, roads, canals reveal how armies, supplies and evacuations flowed.
Time-capsule clarity (1919)—compiled at war’s end, when memory and mapping met on the same page.

What you’ll see

Cemeteries marked as red dots across the front.
Railways and stations, roads, and canals rendered for rapid orientation.
Front-wide coverage that lets you read sectors in relation to towns and transport lines.
Period finish preserved—calm typography, neatline, and a layout that reads cleanly from across the room.

A richer historical frame

Published in 1919, this map stands at the threshold between conflict and commemoration. It records not only how the front was connected—by rails, roads and waterways—but also how it would be remembered, through a network of cemeteries established in the war’s immediate aftermath. As a wall piece, it is both evidence arranged with care and a dignified prompt to reflection.
