EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the stern yet resolute visage of Lieutenant General Sir Edward Bulfin, a British military hero of World War I. Born in 1862, Bulfin rose through the ranks of the British Army to become a key figure in the early years of the Great War. He is most famously remembered for his actions during the First Battle of Ypres in 1914, where he commanded the 1st Cavalry Division. The First Battle of Ypres marked the first major engagement of the war on the Western Front and saw the Allied forces successfully defending against a German offensive. Bulfin's leadership and strategic acumen were instrumental in holding the line, preventing the encirclement and potential defeat of the Allied forces. His troops, though vastly outnumbered, fought tenaciously and were able to repel the German advance. Bulfin's military career spanned over four decades, and he saw action in various conflicts, including the Second Boer War. He was knighted in 1915 for his services during the First World War. The photograph, taken in an undated studio session, showcases the general's military bearing and the gravity of his role as a commander. The image is a testament to the indomitable spirit of the British military during a pivotal moment in world history. This photograph is an essential addition to any historical or military collection, providing a glimpse into the life of a remarkable British general and the events that shaped the course of World War I.
