EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant French postcard from the First World War era captures the heartfelt plea of a young girl as she prays for the safety and protection of her soldier father. Dated between 1914 and 1918, this image serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by families during the Great War. The little girl, with her hands clasped and eyes closed in deep concentration, is a symbol of hope and resilience in the face of uncertainty and fear. The image evokes a sense of longing and love, as she sends her heartfelt prayers to the heavens, seeking protection for her beloved father on the battlefield. The muted colors and delicate brushstrokes of the postcard add to its emotional depth, making it a poignant keepsake from a time when the world was forever changed by the horrors of war. This postcard is a testament to the enduring bond between a father and daughter, and the unwavering faith that love and prayer can provide comfort and strength in the most challenging of times.
