EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of respite for a young soldier named Albert Auerbach of the Royal Fusiliers during the harsh conditions of the Egyptian desert in 1916, during the First World War. The image, part of The Patricia Aubrey Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to the Middle East campaign of the Great War. Auerbach, dressed in his military uniform, is seen here relaxing in a deckchair, his weary expression reflecting the challenging climate and the rigors of military life. The sandy terrain and tents in the background add to the authenticity of the scene, as the heat of the desert sun beats down on the camp. The Royal Fusiliers, a renowned infantry regiment of the British Army, were deployed to Egypt as part of the Eastern Mediterranean Expeditionary Force. Their mission was to protect the Suez Canal and defend against potential Ottoman Turkish attacks. Despite the harsh conditions, the soldiers found moments of relaxation and camaraderie, as seen in this photograph. The 1910s were a pivotal decade in world history, with the First World War marking a significant turning point in human history. This image of Albert Auerbach provides a poignant reminder of the human stories that lie behind the larger historical narrative, offering a glimpse into the lives of soldiers during wartime.
