EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, published by the Illustrated London News in December 1916, showcases the Dragoon Guards of the Queen's Bays during the First World War. The Dragoon Guards, a British cavalry regiment, are depicted in their khaki uniforms, a stark contrast against the European landscape. The guards, numbering 21 in this photograph, are seen mounted on their horses, their determined expressions reflecting the intensity of the war that raged on. The Illustrated London News, a prominent weekly newspaper in the United Kingdom, published this colour image to provide their readers with an authentic view of the British soldiers' appearance during the war. The use of colour in the photograph adds a sense of vibrancy and realism, allowing viewers to connect with the soldiers on a deeper level. The year was 1916, and the First World War had been raging for over two years. The British Army had undergone significant changes, with the adoption of khaki uniforms becoming a standard practice. The Dragoon Guards, one of the oldest and most decorated regiments in the British Army, were no exception. The photograph was taken during a time when the importance of morale and public support was at an all-time high. The Illustrated London News, by publishing this image, played a crucial role in maintaining the connection between the soldiers and the people back home. The newspaper's readers could see their loved ones, their friends, and their heroes in this image, serving their country and fighting for a cause greater than themselves. This photograph is an essential piece of history, providing a glimpse into the past and offering a window into the lives of the Dragoon Guards of the Queen's Bays during the First World War.
