EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative studio portrait captures the young and determined face of Albert Auerbach, a brave soldier of the 4/1st City of London Regiment, Royal Fusiliers, during the tumultuous year of 1915 in the midst of World War I. Albert, born in 1894, dons his full military uniform, complete with the distinctive pith helmet and leather pistol holder, emblematic of the exotic locales and harsh conditions faced by the regiment in their campaigns. The autumnal hues of the photograph's background add a sense of melancholy and introspection, as Albert gazes directly into the camera with an unwavering gaze. The Royal Fusiliers, a storied and historic regiment of the British Army, had been formed in 1685 and saw action in numerous conflicts, including the Anglo-Dutch Wars, the Napoleonic Wars, and the Boer War. By 1915, they were once again called to defend the realm, this time against the Central Powers in the Great War. Albert, like countless other young men of his generation, answered the call to duty, leaving behind his civilian life to serve his country and protect the values he held dear. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by individuals like Albert during this pivotal moment in history, and the indelible mark that the First World War left on the lives of those who lived through it. This photograph is part of The Patricia Aubrey Collection, a vast archive of historical images from the early 20th century. It is a testament to the power of visual storytelling and the ability of a single image to transport us to another time and place, offering a glimpse into the lives of those who came before us.
