EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures the uniformed figure of a young Leopold, Duc de Brabant, at the tender age of thirteen. In 1915, he was presented by his parents to the Belgian Army's 3rd Division, a moment that would shape his future as he eventually became King in 1934.
The image exudes a sense of youth and innocence juxtaposed with the seriousness and responsibility of military service during wartime. The young Leopold appears confident and determined in his uniform, hinting at the leadership qualities that would later define his reign as king.
As we reflect on this historical photograph from World War I, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by individuals like Leopold who were called upon to serve their country at such a young age. It serves as a poignant reminder of the impact that war has on individuals and nations alike.
Holt's Battlefields Collection has expertly captured this moment in time through their collaboration with Mary Evans Prints Online. The attention to detail and historical significance make this print a valuable addition to any collection or display honoring those who served during WWI.
