EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a poignant moment during the First World War as Cardinal Bourne, the Catholic Archbishop of Westminster, addresses the brave men of the Dublin Fusiliers brigade from the back of a transport waggon on the Western Front in 1917. The image, taken by renowned Italian artist Fortunino Matania, depicts the Cardinal in his clerical attire, with a serious expression, as he engages with the soldiers, many of whom are listening intently while others gaze off into the distance, their faces etched with the weariness and hardship of war. The scene is set against the backdrop of the muddy, war-torn landscape, with the sky above filled with ominous clouds, serving as a stark reminder of the harsh realities of the battlefield. As the spiritual leader of the Catholic community in England and Wales, Cardinal Bourne's visit to the troops was an important morale-boosting gesture, providing spiritual solace and a sense of connection to their faith during a time of great hardship and uncertainty. The photograph stands as a testament to the enduring spirit of the soldiers and the unwavering support of their religious leaders during the darkest days of the war.
