EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of traditional military life in the early 20th century, as soldiers on horseback apply Elliman's Embrocation to their aching muscles. Dressed in full Edwardian regalia, these brave men, with their stern expressions and determined postures, exemplify the discipline and resilience required during this era. Elliman's Embrocation, a medical lotion that has been alleviating muscle pain since its inception in Slough, England, in 1847, is seen here being used to soothe the weariness of long hours on horseback. The image, circa 1912, is a testament to the enduring popularity of Elliman's Embrocation, which continues to be sought after by people worldwide for its therapeutic benefits. The photograph, taken by the Illustrated London News - Consolidated Archive Holdings Ltd, offers a unique glimpse into the past, showcasing the intersection of military tradition and medical innovation.
