EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures a moment frozen in time during the tumultuous era of World War I. The image showcases a British family gathered together in their cozy living room, with an eye-catching poster prominently displayed on the wall behind them. Created by Savile Lumley in 1915, this powerful propaganda piece bears the words "Daddy, What Did You Do In The Great War?" - a question that undoubtedly echoed through countless households across England. The composition is filled with emotion as we see a young boy sitting on a chair, his curious gaze fixed upon his father who stands proudly beside him. On either side of them are two sisters and another brother, all eagerly awaiting their father's response to the haunting inquiry posed by the poster. Meanwhile, their mother watches intently from afar. The atmosphere within the room is charged with patriotism and anticipation; it reflects both pride for those who have answered duty's call and anxiety for what lies ahead. This snapshot encapsulates not only one family's experience but also serves as a reminder of the collective sacrifice made by men and women alike during this global conflict. As we observe this historical artifact captured over a century ago, it prompts us to reflect on our own familial connections to past events and consider how they shape our present-day understanding of war and its consequences.
