This evocative photograph captures the spirit of Christmas at the Front during the dark and tumultuous year of 1914. British soldiers, dressed in their khaki uniforms, are seen carrying mistletoe branches on the barrels of their rifles as they march through the muddy trenches.

The sight of soldiers adorning their weapons with mistletoe is a poignant reminder of the desire for normalcy and joy that persisted even in the most unimaginable of circumstances.
