EDITORS COMMENTS
This beautiful and poignant photograph, titled "Les belles familles; le brigadier Gaston Meresse, aine de douze enfants, et sa petit soeur nuveau-nee" (Beautiful families; Brigadier Gaston Meresse, eldest of twelve children, and his new-born little sister), was published in the French magazine "L'Illustration" in 1916. The image captures a heartwarming moment between Brigadier Gaston Meresse, the eldest of twelve children, and his newborn sister. Dressed in their finest apparel, Gaston stands proudly holding his baby sister, both clad in white and black clothing typical of the early 20th century. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the human side of the First World War, which raged on in Europe during that time. Gaston, a soldier and a man of the military, is shown here in civilian attire, away from the battlefield, cherishing the arrival of a new family member. The image is a testament to the enduring bonds of family, even amidst the chaos and hardships of wartime. The photograph is from the "Collection de la Guerre IV" (War Collection IV) of "L'Illustration," which documented the events of the war from July to December 1916. The creator of the photograph remains unknown, adding to the mystery and intrigue surrounding this beautiful and moving image.
