EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a significant moment in the early history of World War I, as King George V pays a visit to the British and Belgian troops in northern France and West Flanders in 1914. The King, dressed in his full regalia and adorned with the insignia of the Most Noble Order of the Garter, stands proudly amongst the weary soldiers, demonstrating his unwavering support and solidarity with those on the front lines. Accompanying King George V is King Albert I of Belgium, who stands resolutely by his side. Behind them, the Prince of Wales, later Edward VIII, observes the scene with a solemn expression. Also present is Sir Pertab Singh, an Indian military officer, and the Maharajah of Bikaner, adding to the diverse and international composition of the gathering. The visit was a crucial morale-booster for the troops, who were enduring the harsh realities of trench warfare. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the unity and camaraderie that bound the Allied forces together during this pivotal time in history. This photograph, taken from the extensive archive of Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a unique glimpse into the past, allowing us to connect with the events of a bygone era and pay tribute to the bravery and resilience of those who served during the First World War.
