EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant photo print, we witness the compassionate nature of Diana, Princess of Wales during her three-day visit to Bosnia-Herzegovina. The purpose behind her trip was to shed light on the devastating impact landmines have on people's lives and advocate for a complete ban on their production, sale, and use. This noble campaign was organized by the American-based Landmine Survivors Network. Captured in this powerful image is Princess Diana comforting Elvira Dragan, a grief-stricken mother who had come to pay tribute to her fallen soldier son Tadic at Sarajevo's Lav cemetery. Although unplanned, the Princess made an unscheduled stop at this solemn place on the final day of her visit. Her presence brought solace and empathy as she reached out to console Mrs. Dragan amidst her sorrow. The date etched into history as 10th August 1997 marks not only an encounter between royalty and a grieving mother but also symbolizes hope for change in war-torn regions like Bosnia-Herzegovina. As part of the House of Windsor and renowned for her philanthropic efforts worldwide, Princess Diana used her platform to raise awareness about post-war struggles faced by communities across Europe. This photograph taken by Kent Gavin serves as a reminder of both compassion and determination displayed by one remarkable woman who sought justice for those affected by landmines' horrors. It encapsulates a moment frozen in time when humanity transcended boundaries imposed by conflict - an enduring testament
