EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures the joy and hope of Emile Verheyen's wedding day, despite the backdrop of the ongoing First World War. Emile, a Belgian soldier from Ghent, was a patient at Quex Park VAD Hospital in Ramsgate, England, between November 1914 and March 1915. The hospital, run by the Kent/178 Birchington Detachment, opened on October 15, 1914, and closed on January 31, 1919. Emile's commandant during his stay was Hannah Powell-Cotton, wife of Major Percy HG Powell-Cotton, founder of the Powell-Cotton Museum and resident of Quex Park. The reverse of the photograph bears the inscription "Souvenir affectueuse de Verheyen, Emile & Gabrielle - Soule, maries le 7.6.1916" (Affective Souvenir of Verheyen, Emile & Gabrielle - Soul, married on 7.6.1916). The image serves as a poignant reminder of the human stories behind the larger conflict, and the enduring power of love and connection, even in the most challenging of circumstances.
