EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant image captures the moment of connection between Belgian refugees and British soldiers during the tumultuous years of the First World War. The photograph, taken between 1914 and 1918, depicts a group of Belgian men, women, and children standing at the side of a road in Flanders, their expressions a mix of curiosity and apprehension, as they watch British troops march by. Dressed in their uniforms, the soldiers, some mounted on horseback, are focused on their mission, oblivious to the plight of the civilians they pass by. The scene is a powerful reminder of the human impact of war, with the refugees, who had been displaced from their homes due to the conflict, seeking solace and comfort in observing the soldiers who were both a source of protection and a reminder of the chaos that had disrupted their lives. The image, taken on the Western Front, is a poignant testament to the resilience and determination of those caught up in the Great War, and the unexpected moments of connection that could occur amidst the turmoil.
