EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the desolate landscapes of Egypt, Allied soldiers await the arrival of orders during the First World War. In this evocative image, a group of soldiers, dressed in various uniforms and armed with rifles, sit atop horses, their helmets casting shadows on the sandy ground. The heat of the Middle Eastern sun beats down upon them, as they patiently wait for the next course of action. Some soldiers lean against their horses, while others engage in quiet conversation, their pith helmets shielding them from the sun. In the background, the vast expanse of the Nile River stretches out, its tranquil waters a stark contrast to the tense atmosphere of the soldiers. The date is between 1914 and 1918, and the scene unfolds against the backdrop of the Great War, a time of uncertainty and danger. The soldiers' expressions convey a sense of anticipation, as they prepare for the defence of the Nile and the protection of their homeland. The image captures the essence of war time, with its mixture of tension, patience, and the unyielding spirit of the soldiers as they await their next orders.
