EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Sussex Regiment Collection takes us back in time to the early 20th century. The image showcases members of RSR 2 / 6th Battalion, standing proudly inside a magnificent palace. As we delve into this historical artifact, we are transported to an era defined by both architectural grandeur and global conflict. The photograph captures the essence of India's rich heritage, with its intricate architecture and majestic arches serving as a backdrop for these brave soldiers. Their presence within this opulent setting evokes a sense of awe and admiration for their dedication during World War One. Surrounded by lush gardens, the soldiers stand tall amidst nature's beauty while fulfilling their duty far away from home. The juxtaposition between the tranquility of the garden and the turmoil of war adds depth to this poignant snapshot. Presumed to be taken in Mysore due to contextual clues, this image not only documents military history but also serves as a testament to cultural exchange between nations during times of strife. As part of West Sussex County Council's collection at the West Sussex Record Office, this photograph offers us a glimpse into an important chapter in our shared past. It reminds us that even amidst chaos and destruction, artistry and resilience can coexist harmoniously - encapsulating both India's architectural marvels and humanity's unwavering spirit.
