john-g Posted 27 May , 2017 Share Posted 27 May , 2017 What a excellent collection of photographs, it is certainly a very important collection and I am sure it will be a help to people who are studying the Italian war to put names to locations. I am sure to return and take another look as I have some photos that I would like to identify sometime. john-g Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James A Pratt III Posted 27 May , 2017 Share Posted 27 May , 2017 Emperor Karl is in at least on of the pictures. The picture of a woman might be that of the Empress Zita. The AH official history of WW I is online "Austria-Hungary's Last war 1914-1918" in German and English Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your photo shows a 35 cm naval gun, the gunners appear to be Austrian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
