EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant postcard from 1915 captures the spirit of love and longing during the First World War in France. Two children, one dressed as a soldier and the other as a cantiniere, offer a bouquet of mistletoe and a flag to those absent fighting at the front. The image symbolizes hope, patriotism, and innocence amidst the turmoil of war.
As we enter this new year, marked by enemy breezes that have brought us closer to our beloved France and those we miss dearly, this postcard serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by so many during this tumultuous time in history. The children's youthful faces reflect both determination and sadness, embodying the resilience of youth in times of conflict.
The mistletoe hanging above them represents peace and unity, while the flag they hold high symbolizes pride and loyalty to their country. This touching scene encapsulates the emotions felt by families separated by war, eagerly awaiting their loved ones' return.
Through this simple yet powerful image captured on a postcard over a century ago, we are reminded of the enduring impact of war on individuals and communities alike. It is a testament to humanity's ability to find moments of beauty and connection even in times of great adversity.
