EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant image captures the emotional moment of farewell between a British soldier and his little sister as he prepares to depart for the Western Front during the early days of World War I. The soldier, dressed in his full military uniform, is a member of the Honourable Artillery Company, one of the oldest and most distinguished regiments in the British Army. The date on the photograph is 1914, a time when the reality of the long and brutal conflict was just beginning to sink in for the British people. The soldier's little sister, with tears in her eyes, reaches up to give him a loving kiss on the cheek. The tenderness and affection in their expression convey the deep emotional bond between brother and sister, and the fear and anxiety that comes with the uncertainty of war. The image is a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the sacrifices made by families during times of conflict. The photograph also highlights the impact of mobilization on children, who were often left behind to cope with the absence of their loved ones. The image is a powerful reminder of the human stories that lie behind the history of the First World War, and the enduring love and support that families provided to their soldiers during times of crisis.
