EDITORS COMMENTS
The Easter Volunteer Review: A Glimpse into the Past". This engraving, titled "The Easter Volunteer Review" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by Arthur Hopkins in 1870, this print offers a fascinating snapshot of military preparations during the Victorian era. Set against the picturesque backdrop of Ovingdean's fields in East Sussex, England, we witness an impressive display of defense readiness. The scene depicts a group of dedicated volunteers gathered on Brighton Beach for their annual review. These brave men have come together to showcase their skills and commitment to protecting their homeland. As we delve deeper into the image, we are struck by the attention to detail that Hopkins has captured. Each volunteer stands tall and proud, donning their uniforms with precision and pride. Their weapons gleam under the sun's rays as they prepare for inspection. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this engraving serves as a testament to the importance placed on national security during this time period. It reminds us of how communities rallied together voluntarily to safeguard their country from potential threats. Preserved within private collections today, this historic artwork allows us to reflect upon our past while appreciating those who selflessly served before us. Let it serve as a reminder that dedication and unity can overcome any challenge – even across generations separated by time.
