EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking portrait captures Prince Albert, later King George VI of the United Kingdom, during his tenure on the staff of Sir Hugh Salmond at Spa, Belgium in 1918. Following the visit of his father, King George V, to Belgium in 1917, Prince Albert joined the British military mission under Sir Hugh Salmond to support the Belgian resistance against German occupation during World War I. Dressed in full military uniform, Prince Albert exudes a sense of determination and resolve. The photograph was likely taken during a brief respite from the intense military operations, as the serene expression on his face suggests a moment of reflection. The backdrop of Spa, a popular health resort town in eastern Belgium, adds an unexpected element of tranquility to the image. The lush greenery and picturesque landscape contrast sharply with the harsh realities of war, offering a brief reprieve from the chaos and destruction that defined the era. Prince Albert's service with Sir Hugh Salmond marked a pivotal moment in his life, as it was during this time that he gained firsthand experience in military leadership and diplomacy. These skills would later serve him well as he ascended to the throne following his brother's abdication in 1936. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into a pivotal moment in Prince Albert's life, as well as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices and challenges faced by the British monarchy during wartime.
