EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant image, titled "The Fatalist," captures the weary and resigned expression of Captain Bruce Bairnsfather of the 1st Battalion, Royal Warwickshire Regiment during the brutal trenches of World War I. The year was 1888 when Bairnsfather was born, and he would go on to serve in the military during the Great War from 1914 to 1919. In this photograph, taken likely during the conflict, the captain is seen with a look of resignation and exhaustion etched on his face, as if he has come to accept the inevitable fate that comes with the horrors of war. The caption below the image reads, "I'm sure they'll ear this damn thing squeakin," a reference to the incessant sound of rats scurrying in the trenches. Bairnsfather was a prolific cartoonist, known for his satirical and humorous depictions of life in the trenches, which were published in various British newspapers and magazines during the war. This historical print serves as a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the resilience of those who served during this tumultuous time in history.
