EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures Princess Margaretha of Sweden, aged fifteen, at work for the Red Cross Society during the early weeks of the First World War. The eldest daughter of Prince Carl of Sweden, brother of the King of Sweden, and Princess Ingeborg, daughter of King Frederick of Denmark, Margaretha is shown diligently sewing at a machine, her expression serious and focused. Sweden, a neutral country during the conflict, saw its royalty and citizens making significant efforts to aid those affected by the war. The Red Cross Society played a crucial role in providing humanitarian assistance to soldiers and civilians, and Princess Margaretha's contribution was a testament to the spirit of compassion and solidarity that prevailed during this tumultuous period in history. The image, taken in 1914, is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the young princess and countless others in the name of humanitarian aid during the First World War.
