EDITORS COMMENTS
This WWI cartoon, created by Albert Warbrick in September 1917, captures the humorous side of life amidst the chaos of war. In this pen and ink drawing, we see a comical exchange between an instructor and a rookie soldier named Binks. The instructor questions Binks about his destination, to which he replies that he is headed to the hospital in a minute. The caption adds an extra layer of amusement to the scene. The cartoon depicts two riders on horseback jumping over obstacles, showcasing their equestrian skills. It provides a lighthearted moment during a time when soldiers were facing unimaginable challenges on the battlefield. Warbrick's artistic talent shines through in this piece as he skillfully captures both humor and action with his detailed lines and expressive characters. This print offers us a glimpse into the everyday lives of soldiers during World War I, reminding us that even in times of great adversity, laughter can still be found. Now preserved in a private collection but originally published by Abbott and Holder in London, this artwork serves as both entertainment and historical documentation of life during one of humanity's darkest periods.
