EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1918, amidst the chaos of World War One. The image showcases the serene courtyard of Chamba Palace, nestled in India's enchanting landscapes. Standing proudly at attention are members of RSR 2 / 6th Battalion, Royal Sussex Regiment, a testament to their unwavering dedication and bravery during this tumultuous period. The architecture of Chamba Palace is nothing short of magnificent; its intricate details and grandeur transport us to an era long gone. The regal fountain at the center adds a touch of elegance and tranquility to the scene, as water gracefully cascades down its ornate structure. Surrounded by lush greenery and vibrant blooms, this garden oasis provides respite from the harsh realities of war. It serves as a reminder that even in times of conflict, beauty can still be found if one knows where to look. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot captured over a century ago, we cannot help but marvel at the resilience displayed by these soldiers amidst such uncertain times. Their presence in this idyllic setting offers a stark contrast between duty and peace - an embodiment of hope for brighter days ahead. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's esteemed collection (Ref No: RSR Uncat Acc 3284 Vol 2 2/6th Batt/250), this photograph stands as a poignant tribute not only to those who fought valiantly during WW1 but also to India's rich architectural heritage that continues
