EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of inspection at The Maltings in Mistley, Essex, during the aftermath of World War I. In the foreground, James Whale of the 7th Battalion Worcestershire Regiment stands at attention, his expression a mixture of apprehension and relief as the officer conducts his scrutiny. The backdrop of The Maltings, with its grand arches and intricate brickwork, adds a sense of history and permanence to the scene. James Whale's story is one of resilience and resourcefulness in the face of adversity. Having been captured during the war at Holzminden Camp in Germany on August 26, 1917, he found solace in his artistic talents, drawing charcoal portraits of his fellow inmates to pass the time. His exceptional skill at bridge also earned him a reputation as a formidable player in high-stakes games, resulting in him cashing in around four thousand pounds worth of IOUs upon his repatriation on December 14, 1918. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the human spirit's ability to find creativity and triumph in the most challenging of circumstances. The image, taken during the period of the First World War, is a valuable historical document, showcasing the experiences of soldiers during their return to civilian life.
