EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative vintage lantern slide depicts a Belgian peasant woman and her young child, both wearing gas masks, as they cautiously approach the front lines of the Flanders battlefield during World War I. The haunting image transports us back to the early 20th century, a time of unimaginable hardship and sacrifice. The woman's traditional Belgian attire, complete with a headscarf and apron, contrasts starkly with the modern gas masks that shield them from the deadly gases released during the conflict. The child, bundled up against the cold, clutches a small basket, perhaps carrying supplies for the soldiers or perhaps their own meager belongings. The image was captured near the trenches on the Flanders front, a region that saw some of the most fierce and prolonged fighting during the war. The woman's determined expression and the child's wide-eyed gaze speak volumes about the resilience and fortitude of the Belgian people during these trying times. The lantern slide, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a poignant glimpse into the human cost of war. It serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by civilians and soldiers alike during the Great War, and the indelible impact it had on the world.
