EDITORS COMMENTS
A Moment of Comfort and Dreams: A Little Girl's Slumber Amidst the Uncertainties of WWI [Image: A young girl, dressed in a pink nightgown and red cardigan, sits asleep in a plush armchair. Her cherubic face is peaceful as she dreams, her hands clutched around a soft toy. Nearby, a red and white striped cushion adds a touch of warmth and cosiness to the scene. The room is dimly lit, with a single lamp casting a gentle glow. Hanging on the wall behind the chair is a framed photograph of a soldier in uniform, his stern expression a stark contrast to the tranquility of the girl's slumber. The caption reads, 'Absent Yet Present: A Father's Love in Wartime'. [Caption:] In the midst of the tumultuous events of the First World War, the domestic sphere offered a semblance of comfort and normalcy. This little girl, dressed in her pink nightgown and red cardigan, finds solace in the plush armchair, her dreams filled with the image of her soldier father. The red and white striped cushion adds a touch of warmth and cosiness to the scene, while the framed photograph of her father in uniform serves as a constant reminder of his absence. The room is bathed in a gentle, dim light, creating an atmosphere of peace and tranquility. [French:] Une petite fille endormie dans un fauteuil confortable: Les rêves d'une père soldat absent pendant la Première Guerre mondiale. [Translation:] A sleeping little girl in a comfortable armchair: The dreams of a soldier father absent during the First World War. [Date:] 1914-1918
