EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the regal presence of Albert I, King of Belgium. Captured by Cheri-Rousseau, a renowned 19th-20th-century photographer, this image reflects the essence of Belgian royalty during a tumultuous period in history. Albert I ascended to the throne in 1909 and reigned until his untimely death in 1934. His reign coincided with World War I, a time when Belgium faced immense challenges as it was overrun and occupied by the German Empire. Despite these adversities, Albert I's leadership and unwavering determination earned him great respect both within his country and abroad. In this portrait, we see a young Albert donning his military uniform - an emblematic representation of his commitment to protecting his nation. The three-quarter length composition allows us to appreciate every detail: from the intricate design on his uniform to the stern expression on his face. The photograph captures not only Albert's physical appearance but also hints at the weight he carried as king during such trying times. It serves as a testament to his resilience and dedication towards safeguarding Belgium's sovereignty. Preserved in the Archives Larousse in Paris, France, this historic image offers us a glimpse into one man's extraordinary journey through adversity while upholding royal traditions. As we admire this remarkable piece of photography by Bridgeman Images, let us remember King Albert I for his indomitable spirit that guided Belgium through its darkest hours.
