EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by Alfieri, we are transported back to the early twentieth century in Europe. The image depicts a momentous occasion during the Royal Visit to Lincoln on 9th April 1918. Standing tall and regal, His Majesty is seen presenting a prestigious C. B. E (Commander of the Order of the British Empire) to Mr E. A. Allen. The significance of this ceremony lies in Mr Allen's heroic act that saved the life of a young girl driver during an air raid. This heartwarming gesture showcases not only bravery but also highlights the importance of recognizing ordinary individuals who perform extraordinary acts for their fellow citizens. Alfieri's monochrome photography adds depth and emotion to this historical event, capturing every detail with precision. The contrast between light and shadow emphasizes both the solemnity and grandeur of the occasion. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we cannot help but be reminded of how moments like these shape our history and honor those who go above and beyond for others. It serves as a timeless reminder that heroism can be found in unexpected places, even amidst times of turmoil. This photograph from TopFoto transports us back in time, allowing us to witness firsthand an unforgettable moment when courage was rewarded by royalty – a testament to humanity's resilience even during challenging times.
