EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, taken in 1917 during World War I, we are transported to a moment of respite and enchantment amidst the chaos of war. The image depicts a French soldier tenderly kissing the hand of an actress, highlighting the powerful role that theatre played in providing solace and entertainment for the armies of the Republic. The soldier's military uniform and helmet serve as a stark contrast to the elegance and grace exuded by the actress. It is evident that this brief encounter offers a temporary escape from their respective roles - one as protector of his nation, and the other as an entertainer bringing joy to weary hearts. As he presents her with a rose, symbolizing love and beauty even in times of conflict, it becomes clear that this exchange represents more than just admiration for her artistry. It embodies a profound appreciation for all those who bring light into darkness through their performances. This colour lithograph by Guy Arnoux captures not only the physical act of affection but also conveys deeper emotions such as longing, vulnerability, and hope. Through its vivid depiction, we are reminded that even amidst war's brutality, humanity seeks solace in artistry – finding comfort in moments where reality fades away momentarily under theater's enchanting spell.
