EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of respite for Lieutenant Cuthbert Grasemann (1890-1962) of the Royal Engineers during the chaotic and relentless backdrop of the First World War in 1916. The image, now a poignant reminder of the human side of the conflict, shows Grasemann sitting in a makeshift camp with his loyal canine companion. With all leave cancelled, this photograph was sent to his family as a symbol of his unwavering dedication to duty and the comforting presence of his faithful friend. The uniformed officer, a member of the Royal Engineers' Railway Operations, displays a sense of weariness yet determination, his gaze fixed on the camera lens, while his dog, a loyal and steadfast companion, rests at his feet. The photograph offers a glimpse into the harsh realities of life on the Western Front, where the daily grind of warfare and the longing for home were ever-present. The image of Grasemann and his dog serves as a poignant reminder of the human connection that transcended the horrors of the battlefield, providing solace and companionship in the most challenging of circumstances. This photograph, now a cherished family heirloom, stands as a testament to the enduring bond between man and man's best friend, even in the midst of war.
