EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a glimpse into daily life at Alexandra Palace Camp during the early 20th century. The image showcases The Barber's Shop, a place where German prisoners of war in Great Britain would come to groom themselves and socialize.
The scene is filled with detail, from the barber chairs to the various grooming tools hanging on the walls. The atmosphere appears busy yet orderly, with men patiently waiting their turn for a haircut or shave. Despite being prisoners of war, these men seem to find solace in this small corner of normalcy within the confines of the camp.
The photo was taken by the photographic section of the Royal Flying Corps, providing a unique perspective on this historical moment. It serves as a reminder of the human experience during times of conflict and sheds light on how individuals can find moments of connection even in challenging circumstances.
Overall, this print offers a poignant look into a lesser-known aspect of World War I history, capturing both the resilience and camaraderie that can emerge even amidst adversity.
