EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a poignant moment during the First World War, as a nurse tenderly shaves the beard of a weary soldier. Circa 1916, the scene unfolds in a physical education college or training camp, likely in the United Kingdom. The nurse, dressed in her distinctive uniform and white apron, holds a shaving brush and mug, while the soldier, clad in uniform and looking directly at the camera, leans back on a bed with his eyes closed, seemingly at ease in her care. The image offers a glimpse into the daily life of soldiers during the war, and the crucial role that nurses played in their physical and emotional wellbeing. It also speaks to the broader context of the time, as men from all walks of life were called upon to serve their country, and the education system adapted to meet the demands of the war effort. This photograph is an invaluable historical record of the sacrifices and dedication of the nurses and soldiers during the First World War. It is a poignant reminder of the human stories that lie behind the larger narrative of history, and the enduring bonds of care and compassion that can be forged even in the most challenging of circumstances.
