EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the stern yet focused gaze of Major General Sir Archibald Abercromby Montgomery of Alamein, a distinguished British army officer during the First World War. Montgomery served a pivotal role as the Commander of the Fourth Army's XIII Corps and as the Chief of Staff to General Rawlinson, based at Querrieux Chateau, near Amiens, northern France. Dressed in his full military uniform, complete with the CB and KCMG insignia, Montgomery exudes an air of authority and determination. The image, taken in the early 20th century, captures a moment in time during the Great War when the outcome of the conflict hung in the balance. Montgomery's leadership and strategic acumen would prove crucial in the months to come, as the Allied forces fought to turn the tide against the German army. The photograph, with its timeless composition and hauntingly beautiful backdrop of the French countryside, serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the soldiers who fought in the First World War.
