EDITORS COMMENTS
This whimsical and heartwarming print from the First World War captures a child dressed in a hairy disguise complete with a fake mustache and war cross, proudly declaring, "I am as hairy as dad." The patriotic map serves as the backdrop for this playful moment of childhood innocence amidst the harsh realities of war.
Drafted by artist Albert Berts in 1915, this image reflects the spirit of patriotism and pride that permeated France during the tumultuous years of WWI. The child's youthful exuberance is evident as they playfully mimic their father's military appearance, showcasing a sense of honor and duty even at such a young age.
The clever use of makeup and props to create this elaborate disguise speaks to the creativity and resourcefulness that often emerged during times of conflict. It also serves as a poignant reminder of the impact that war had on families, with children eagerly stepping into roles beyond their years to support their loved ones serving on the front lines.
Overall, this charming photograph encapsulates both the innocence of youth and the resilience of individuals facing adversity. It is a testament to the enduring spirit of hope and unity that prevailed during one of history's darkest chapters.
