EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history as King Albert I of Belgium prepares to depart by plane to visit the lines of the Yser during World War I. The year is believed to be around 1917, showcasing the monarch's unwavering commitment to his country and its forces. King Albert I (1875-1934) was not only a ruler but also a commander who led Belgium's forces throughout the war. He played a crucial role in the Battle of the Yser in 1914, where Belgian and French troops successfully halted the advancing German army from reaching their desired destination at sea. In this image, we witness King Albert I standing next to an airplane, ready for takeoff on what would undoubtedly be an important mission. His presence exudes strength and determination as he prepares himself for yet another encounter with the harsh realities of war. The photograph offers us a glimpse into both military strategy and technological advancements of that era. It symbolizes bravery, leadership, and resilience amidst one of history's most devastating conflicts. As we reflect upon this image today, it serves as a reminder of those who sacrificed their lives for freedom and peace. King Albert I stands tall as an emblematic figure representing not only his nation but also all those who fought valiantly alongside him during World War I.
