EDITORS COMMENTS
King George V shares a lighthearted moment with King Albert I of Belgium, recounting an amusing incident he experienced in the captured German trenches. This photo print, taken by renowned photographer Ernest Brooks on August 25th, 1916, transports us back to the battlefields of France during World War One. In this historic snapshot from the Battle of the Somme, we witness two powerful monarchs engaging in conversation amidst the chaos and destruction that surrounded them. The British army's King George V regales his Belgian counterpart with a tale that brings a much-needed respite from the horrors of war. As soldiers stand stoically behind their kings, their uniforms bear witness to their bravery and sacrifice. The image captures not only royalty but also ordinary soldiers who fought valiantly for their countries during this tumultuous time. This photograph is more than just a glimpse into history; it serves as a poignant reminder of camaraderie and shared experiences even in times of great adversity. It encapsulates both the human spirit's resilience and our innate ability to find moments of joy amidst despair. Ernest Brooks' masterful composition immortalizes this significant encounter between two leaders while honoring all those who served during World War One. As we reflect upon these brave men's sacrifices, may this print serve as a tribute to their unwavering courage.
