EDITORS COMMENTS
En L'Honneur de L'Amerique: A London Landmark of Unity and Allied Solidarity during World War I This evocative photograph captures a significant moment in international relations during the First World War. Taken on 20 April 1917, the image shows the Victoria Tower at the Houses of Parliament in London, where for the first time, the national flags of Great Britain and America were hoisted together. This symbolic gesture marked a pivotal moment in the alliance between the two powerful nations, signifying their united front against the common enemy. The year 1917 was a turning point in the war, with the United States officially entering the conflict in April. The British people welcomed the American presence with open arms, and this act of flag-raising was a powerful visual representation of their solidarity. The men in the photograph, likely workers or officials, are seen attaching the American flag to the flagpole, with the Union Jack already flying proudly above. The Victoria Tower, a prominent landmark in the City of Westminster, London, serves as a backdrop to this historic event. This photograph is from 'L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2' published by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924. It is a poignant reminder of the unity and camaraderie that existed between the Allied forces during the First World War, and the importance of symbolic gestures in shaping international relations.
