EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history, a colouring book for children titled "The Relief of Poilus" from 1917. Created by the French School in the 20th century, this educational tool offers a unique glimpse into the experiences and challenges faced during World War I. The image depicts a young child engrossed in coloring the pages of this significant book. The scene is filled with symbolism as it portrays soldiers wearing helmets and uniforms, carrying bayonets and other military equipment. In the background, we witness destruction caused by war - burning houses and countryside engulfed in flames. Despite its somber subject matter, this colouring book serves as an important learning resource for children to understand the realities of war while engaging their creativity. It aims to educate them about historical events such as "the great war" or World War I. Through this photograph, we are reminded of how education can play a vital role even amidst times of turmoil. By providing children with tools like this colouring book, they can learn about past conflicts while fostering empathy and understanding. This print not only captures an intriguing historical artifact but also highlights the power of art and education in shaping young minds during challenging times.
