EDITORS COMMENTS
King George V brings solace and hope to wounded soldiers at the 3rd Northern General Base Hospital, Broomhall, in 1915. This poignant print captures a moment of respite amidst the chaos of World War One. As casualties poured into the hospital, King George V made it his duty to visit these brave men who had sacrificed so much for their country. In this image, we see His Majesty standing tall and dignified among rows of patients, each bearing the physical scars of battle. The soldiers' faces reflect a mixture of gratitude and admiration as they gaze upon their monarch with reverence. It is a testament to King George's compassion that he took time out from his royal duties to personally connect with those on the front lines. The 3rd Northern General Base Hospital served as a sanctuary for countless wounded soldiers during this tumultuous period. Located in Sheffield, it became a place where medical professionals worked tirelessly to heal broken bodies and shattered spirits alike. This print is not just an archival record but also serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by both military personnel and civilians during times of war. It stands as a symbol of resilience and unity in the face of adversity.
