EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of determination and unity during the tumultuous years of World War I. Belgian King Albert I, dressed in his military uniform, stands amongst his soldiers, all giving their undivided attention as he addresses them. The scene is set in a muddy, makeshift camp, with the harsh realities of war evident in the worn and weary expressions of the troops. King Albert I, a respected and beloved monarch, led his country through the darkest days of the war, refusing to surrender to the invading German forces. His unwavering commitment to his people and his alliance with the Allies inspired the Belgian army and boosted morale during this critical period. This powerful image serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the Belgian military and their monarch during the First World War.
