EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a poignant moment in Belgian history as King Albert I (1875-1934) presents his young son, Prince Leopold, Duke of Brabant (1901-1983), to the Belgian army during World War I. Taken in 1915, the image portrays the proud king standing before his troops, with his son at his side, both dressed in military uniforms. The soldiers in the background are shown with expressions of admiration and respect, their faces reflecting a deep sense of loyalty and devotion to their monarch. King Albert I, who had ascended to the throne in 1909, led his country through the early years of the war, which saw the invasion and occupation of much of Belgium by German forces. Despite the difficult circumstances, the king remained committed to maintaining the morale of his people and his army, even as he was forced to live in exile in England for much of the conflict. The presentation of his son to the troops was an important symbolic gesture, intended to boost the spirits of the Belgian soldiers and remind them of the continued support of their monarch. The image of the young prince, with his father's strong and determined gaze, serves as a powerful reminder of the resilience and courage of the Belgian people during a time of great adversity. This historical photograph, taken during a significant event in Belgian military history, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of war and sacrifice. The image is a testament to the enduring bond between a monarch and his people, and the unwavering loyalty of a nation's soldiers to their king.
