EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Capture of Messines Ridge; King George V, with Canadian General Currie" from the album "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" published by L'Illustration in Paris in 1924, offers a striking image of historical significance. The scene is set on the ground recently conquered at Vimy and Messines ridges near Ypres, Belgium, during the First World War in 1917. King George V, the monarch of Britain, stands tall and resolute, dressed in his military uniform, with a determined look in his eyes. To his left, Canadian General Sir Arthur William Currie, the Commander of the Canadian Corps, is seen in full military regalia, saluting the King. The image captures the essence of the camaraderie and unity between the British monarch and the Canadian general, symbolizing the alliance between their countries during the war. The Battle of Messines Ridge, fought between June 7 and 14, 1917, was a significant victory for the Allied forces, and this photograph encapsulates the triumphant moment. The image is a testament to the fashion of the time, with the men dressed in their military uniforms, reflecting the era's military apparel trends. The photograph's historic value lies in its portrayal of the Prince of Wales and the Canadian General, highlighting their roles in the Battle of Messines Ridge, an essential moment in the First World War's history. The image is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made during the war and the unity of the Allied forces in their fight against the Central Powers.
