EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant print from the First World War captures the innocence and resilience of two children in France, surrounded by their Christmas toys as they think of their father at the front. The patriotic verse on the postcard reads: "when you come to see our mother, we will know good little father." In a time of separation and uncertainty, these children hold onto hope and love for their brave father fighting in the war.
The image reflects the impact of war on families, with the children's faces showing a mix of longing and determination. The plush animals and games around them serve as reminders of happier times before the conflict began. Despite the harsh winter weather outside, there is warmth and tenderness in this scene as these young ones navigate through a challenging period in history.
As we look back on this moment captured in 1915, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by countless families during World War I. The photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the enduring spirit of youth, patriotism, and family bonds that transcend even the darkest moments of history.
