EDITORS COMMENTS
(Among our Belgian Allies: Belgian Aviators Receiving a Visit and Congratulations from Queen Elisabeth), 1915, is a captivating photograph that transports us back in time to the heart of the First World War. The image, taken from L'Illustration, a renowned French publication, showcases a group of Belgian aviators gathered around a biplane, warmly welcoming Queen Elisabeth of Belgium, also known as Elisabeth Gabrielle Valerie Marie, Duchess in Bavaria and Queen of the Belgians. The scene unfolds at an airfield, likely in France, where the aviators proudly display their aircraft, a symbol of the innovative wartime technology that revolutionized transportation and military strategy. The queen, dressed in elegant attire, is seen gracefully approaching the group, her presence adding a regal touch to the otherwise utilitarian setting. The photograph captures the spirit of camaraderie and unity between the Belgian people and their monarch during a time of conflict. The background is filled with onlookers, their faces expressing awe and admiration as they bear witness to this historic moment. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the significant role aviation played during the First World War and the crucial support provided by the Belgian allies to the French forces. The image, though devoid of color, is rich in history and emotion, making it a valuable addition to any collection focused on the 20th century, aviation, or the First World War.
