A nurse stands among soldiers in a military hospital ward during the Christmas season, a pairing of care and holiday observance that sets this scene apart from routine hospital views. The print belongs to the National Photo Company Collection, the work of a Washington, D.C., studio that recorded official and everyday life in the 1910s. Its date falls within the years of the First World War, when military hospitals were crowded with wounded and ill men, and the holiday setting invites a closer look at the small comforts offered to patients far from home.
