EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant photograph, King Edward VIII of the United Kingdom is seen paying his respects at the Gallipoli War Memorial in Turkey during his visit in 1936. The King, dressed in a formal suit and wearing a hat, stands solemnly with Turkish General Altay, who is dressed in military uniform, as they pay tribute to the brave soldiers who lost their lives during the Gallipoli Campaign of World War I. The Gallipoli Peninsula, located in the Dardanelles region of Turkey, was the site of a major military campaign during the First World War, which took place between 1915 and 1916. The campaign, which was launched by the Allied Powers to secure a sea route to Russia and to help relieve the pressure on the Eastern Front, ultimately failed, resulting in heavy casualties for both sides. King Edward VIII's visit to the Gallipoli War Memorial was a significant moment in the history of Anglo-Turkish relations.

The photograph captures a moment of respect and remembrance, as the King and General Altay stand together in front of the memorial, paying tribute to the sacrifices made during the Gallipoli Campaign. The memorial, which was built in 1921, is an important symbol of the shared history and mutual respect between Turkey and the United Kingdom. The photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War and the enduring bond between the two nations.
