EDITORS COMMENTS
A poignant moment of farewell: A Girl Bids Adieu to Her War-Bound Partner (circa 1910s) This evocative postcard image captures the bittersweet moment as a young woman, Jenny, bids her last goodbyes to her beloved partner, a cavalryman, as he prepares to depart for the frontlines of war. The tender scene is set against the backdrop of a serene and sunlit landscape, with the golden hues of dawn casting a warm glow over the couple. The sentiment of the moment is beautifully encapsulated in the lyrics of the traditional English folk song, "Sweet Jenny Gray," which reads, "Jenny Gray, tis dawn of day, and we two must part... If you know a meaning of a soldier's 'Goodbye, Jenny, dear,' do not cry, dearie, hush every sigh." Despite the impending danger and fear that war brings, the hope and love shared between Jenny and her soldier partner shine through, as she borrows all her sunshine from his eyes and finds strength in their bond. The image of the cavalryman, mounted on his steed, ready to ride off to war, underscores the gravity of the situation, while the tender embrace between the couple serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during times of conflict. The image is a poignant reminder of the emotional toll that war takes on families and loved ones, and the enduring power of love and hope in the face of adversity. This evocative postcard, with its sentimental and sad undertones, is a poignant reminder of the human stories that lie behind the historical events of the First World War.
