EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant cartoon, dated 1916, captures the heartwarming moment of a French soldier's homecoming during the First World War. The image shows a proud mother embracing her healthy and uninjured son in a rural roadside scene. Dressed in his blue uniform, complete with helmet and medal, the soldier reassures his worried mother that he has not been harmed in any part of his body. The scene exudes a sense of relief and happiness, as the family is reunited after an extended period of separation. The soldier's comrades can be seen in the background, also making their way home on leave. This historical cartoon serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by servicemen and their families during the Great War. The image is a testament to the enduring bond between a mother and her son, and the longing for the comforts of home amidst the chaos of the battlefront.
