EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the stern and resolute visage of General Sir William Robertson, a prominent British army officer who played a pivotal role in the strategic direction of the British military effort during the First World War. Robertson served as the Chief of the Imperial General Staff (CIGS) from 1916 to 1918, making him one of the most influential figures in the British military hierarchy during the conflict. Dressed in the full uniform of a British general, complete with the distinctive red tabs on his shoulders and the star of a Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath (KCB) on his chest, Robertson cuts an imposing figure. With his piercing gaze fixed on the horizon, the general appears deep in thought, perhaps contemplating the complex and ever-shifting battlefields of the Great War. The photograph was likely taken in the aftermath of the war, around 1919, as evidenced by the absence of any campaign medals or decorations on his uniform. Robertson's tenure as CIGS was marked by his close collaboration with Field Marshal Douglas Haig, the British Commander-in-Chief on the Western Front, and his unwavering support for the continuation of the costly and ultimately fruitless offensive operations on the Western Front. Despite the controversy surrounding his role in the conduct of the war, Robertson's legacy as a skilled and capable military administrator is undeniable. He played a key role in the organization and mobilization of the British army during the war, and his leadership helped ensure that the Allied forces were able to ultimately prevail against the Central Powers. This powerful image serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices and determination of the men and women who served in the British military during the First World War.
