The sisters, dressed in military uniforms, proudly display their Croix de Guerre medals, a decoration awarded for gallantry in the face of the enemy during the First World War. The photograph, taken from the "Collection de la Guerre IV. L'Illustration Tome CXLVII. La Guerre Janvier, Fevrier, Mars, Avril, Mai, Juin 1916" (Collection of the War IV. The Illustration Volume CXLVII. The War January, February, March, April, May, June 1916), captures the sisters in a direct gaze, looking confidently at the camera. Their strong, determined expressions convey the courage and resilience that defined the women who served their country during the conflict.
