EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures the headstone of Max Seller, a German Jewish soldier buried in the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) Cemetery at Hyde Park Corner in Brussels, Belgium. The cemetery, a peaceful and solemn resting place for soldiers from various nationalities who perished during World War I, holds a unique headstone for each different nationality. Max Seller's headstone is squared at the top, a distinctive feature for German graves in this cemetery. The Star of David etched on the stone signifies that Max was Jewish. Max Seller's grave is a reminder of the complexities and intricacies of the Great War, a conflict that brought together soldiers from diverse backgrounds and nationalities. The presence of German soldiers in a British cemetery may seem unusual, but it underscores the international nature of the war and the shared experience of loss and sacrifice. Interestingly, in the same cemetery lies the grave of Private Albert Edward French, a 16-year-old British soldier who was the subject of a BBC Radio 4 documentary in 1983 titled "He shouldn't have been there, should he?" The documentary explored the circumstances surrounding the enlistment and deployment of underage soldiers during the war. Max Seller's and Private French's graves, situated in the same cemetery, serve as a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the shared experiences of soldiers from different backgrounds and nationalities. The photograph was taken in 2016 and is part of the extensive collection of historical images available from Mary Evans Picture Library.
