EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative illustration, titled "Jack and Tommy," depicts a military man in a blue uniform, adorned with various medals and insignia, walking arm-in-arm with a woman dressed in a vibrant yellow hat and skirt, circa 1915. The woman's hat is adorned with a ribbon, possibly signifying her support for the war effort. The serene expression on both their faces conveys a sense of companionship and camaraderie, despite the tumultuous backdrop of conflict. This illustration was reproduced from a magazine volume published by Grant Richards, a renowned British publishing house, in August 1916. The illustration was created by the talented Francis Campbell Boileau Cadell, a Scottish painter and printmaker, who was known for his distinctive use of color and impressionistic style. Cadell's work was often featured in popular magazines of the time, including this one. The illustration is part of the March of the Women Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, which offers a unique glimpse into the social and cultural history of the early 20th century. The collection includes a vast array of illustrations, photographs, and ephemera that capture the spirit of the era, from the Boer War to the First World War and beyond. This particular illustration is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers and their families during wartime, as well as the enduring power of human connection and companionship in the face of adversity.
