Intrigued by the image and its unknown origins, she has since embarked on a detailed mission to identify the man and locate any living relatives, believing his family to have roots in Gloucestershire. The photograph’s previous owners, a couple with no knowledge of the soldier’s identity or how the portrait came into their possession, had planned to display it on their wall.
