EDITORS COMMENTS
Ordered Off (engraving) captures a poignant moment in history, beautifully brought to life by the talented artist Frank Holl. This print, now part of a private collection, showcases the emotional farewell scene of military personnel being ordered off. The engraving, originally featured in The Illustrated London News on September 13th, 1884, transports us back to an era where uniforms symbolized duty and sacrifice. Holl's meticulous attention to detail allows us to witness the raw emotions etched on the faces of these brave soldiers as they bid their loved ones goodbye. In this evocative composition, we see soldiers standing tall and proud while grappling with mixed feelings of patriotism and personal longing. Their expressions reflect both determination and vulnerability; each face tells a unique story of sacrifice for country and family. This powerful image from Bridgeman Images' Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection serves as a reminder of the human cost behind military service. It invites viewers to contemplate the profound impact that war has on individuals forced into farewells against their will. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece captured through engraving techniques, let us honor those who have served by acknowledging their sacrifices depicted within this moving artwork.
