EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the chaos and turmoil of the First World War in 1916, a French soldier, clad in his distinctive blue uniform and armed with a bayonetted rifle, shares a moment of respite in a grassy field with his beloved. The gentle breeze rustles through the leaves of the nearby tree, casting dappled sunlight upon the couple. With a confident grin, the soldier boasts to his girlfriend, "When I help win this war, I'll make the Empress herself buy me a beer!" His words, filled with bravado and hope, are a testament to the unwavering spirit of the soldiers on the front lines, who found solace and strength in their love and the promise of a peaceful future. The woman, dressed in a white blouse and pink skirt, gazes at her man with a mixture of pride and concern, her hand resting gently on his shoulder. This poignant moment, captured in this vintage cartoon print, offers a glimpse into the human side of the Great War, reminding us of the enduring power of love and the hope that carried soldiers through even the darkest of times.
