En Belgique delivree; L'entrée des souverains belges à Bruxelles, le 22 novembre - place de la Nation
EDITORS COMMENTS
(Delivered in Belgium; The Entrance of the Belgian Sovereigns to Brussels, November 22, 1918: Place de la Nation), is a poignant and historic photograph capturing the moment of triumph and unity in the aftermath of the First World War. The image, created by an unknown photographer, was published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924. The photograph depicts King Albert I of Belgium (Albert Frederic Arthur George Saxe-Coburg and Gotha) and Queen Elisabeth of Belgium (Elisabeth Gabrielle Valerie Marie, Duchess of Bavaria), as they attend the parade of the Belgian armed forces in Brussels. The King, dressed in military uniform, sits regally on horseback, while the Queen, wearing an elegant black dress, stands beside him, her hands folded in front of her. Surrounding them are the cheering crowds, soldiers, and animals, all expressing their joy and gratitude for the liberation of their country. The scene is set against the backdrop of the Place de la Nation, a symbolic location for the Belgian people, representing the unity of the nation. The King and Queen, both of whom had shown remarkable courage and resilience during the war, were beloved figures of the Belgian people. Their presence at the parade was a powerful symbol of hope and renewal, as the country began to rebuild after years of devastation. The photograph is a testament to the enduring spirit of the Belgian people and their monarchy during a time of great adversity. It captures the essence of a nation coming together to celebrate its freedom and the return of its beloved leaders. The black and white image, with its timeless composition and emotional depth, continues to resonate with viewers today, offering a glimpse into a pivotal moment in Belgian history.
