EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the spirit of camaraderie and resilience among soldiers and sailors during the turbulent times of World War I. The centerpiece of the image is a draught board intricately adorned with ships and aeroplanes, symbolizing the connection between the land and sea forces in the grand war effort. Surrounding the board, Scottish soldiers huddled in a trench engage in an intense game of draughts, their focus unbroken despite the harsh conditions of the battlefield. In the background, an artillery team prepares for action, the tension palpable in the air. The contemporary label attached to the print adds an authentic touch, transporting us back to the era and reminding us of the past. This commemorative art piece not only serves as a visual representation of the game that provided momentary relief for soldiers and sailors during the war but also as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the brave men and women who served during this pivotal period in history. The blend of military and naval elements in the image highlights the interconnectedness of the various branches of the armed forces in their collective fight for victory.
