La Reine des Belges sur les lines de L'Yser; Un soldat (a droite) joue un air de violon
EDITORS COMMENTS
(The Queen of the Belgians on the Lines of the Yser; A soldier (on the right) plays an air on the violin, 1916) is a poignant photograph capturing a moment of respite and camaraderie amidst the harsh realities of trench warfare during World War I. The image, from the Collection de la Guerre IV of La Illustration, depicts Queen Elisabeth Gabrielle Valerie Marie of Bavaria, also known as Queen Elisabeth of Belgium, standing in the foreground, her regal bearing softened by her gentle expression as she listens intently to a soldier playing a violin in the background. The setting is the battlefield of the Yser River in Flanders, Belgium, where the Allied forces were making their stand against the German advance in the autumn of 1916. The soldier, dressed in military uniform, is shown playing a violin, his concentration evident as he brings the music to life. The image captures the essence of the human spirit in the face of adversity, with the queen and the soldier sharing a moment of connection through the power of music. The photograph is a testament to the enduring human spirit, even in the most challenging of circumstances. It also serves as a reminder of the role of art and music in bringing comfort and solace during times of war. The identity of the photographer remains unknown, but their image has left a lasting legacy as a poignant and evocative depiction of a moment in history.
