EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph from the First World War era, taken in 1917. The image, which is part of the "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" published by L'Illustration, Paris in 1924, showcases a group of Arabian soldiers, gathered around their band leader, in the desert landscape of Hejaz, Saudi Arabia. King Hussein bin Ali Al Hashimi, the King of Hejaz, is the focal point of the photograph, as he stands amongst his troops, encouragingly addressing the musicians. The musicians, dressed in their military uniforms, are seen organizing themselves with remarkable speed, preparing to play their instruments and lead the troops into battle. The photograph is a testament to the unity and determination of the Arabian army during the First World War. The image captures the essence of the Middle Eastern theatre of war, with the vast desert landscape providing a stark contrast to the full-length portraits of the soldiers. The men, with their serious expressions and focused gaze, embody the spirit of the armed forces, ready to march into battle. The photograph is a significant historical document, providing a glimpse into the military history of the Middle East during the First World War. It is a reminder of the diverse and multifaceted nature of the conflict, which extended beyond the European theatre, and involved the participation of soldiers from all corners of the world. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of historical photographs, and is a testament to the enduring power of music and the arts to inspire and unite people in times of war.
