EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of hope and resilience during the trying times of the First World War. In the image, two lucky charm pendants worn by servicemen are displayed, each holding a unique symbol of protection and good fortune. The pendant on the left takes the shape of an anchor, a powerful symbol for sailors and soldiers alike, representing safety, stability, and the enduring belief that even in the midst of turmoil, one could find a sense of anchorage and security. The pendant on the right, shaped like a heart with a cross in the middle, embodies the deep longing for love, compassion, and divine intervention in the face of adversity. These charms, worn as personal mementos, served as a constant reminder of the intangible yet powerful forces that could help sustain the morale and spirit of the soldiers during their arduous journey through the Great War. The date, 1914-1918, bears testament to the profound impact these charms had on the soldiers' lives, as they carried these symbols of hope and protection with them through the trenches, battles, and hardships of the war. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the human spirit's ability to find solace and strength even in the most challenging of circumstances.
