EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative portrait captures the determined gaze and unyielding spirit of a Corporal of the 1/9th (Glasgow Highlanders) Battalion of the Highland Light Infantry, 5th Brigade, 9th Division, 1st Army. The soldier, identified as Georges Scott, is depicted in full marching order, ready for the call to action. Scott's military career began in the late 1890s, and he went on to make a name for himself as a war correspondent for the esteemed news magazine L Illustration during the Balkan Wars of 1912-13. When World War I broke out in 1914, Scott answered the call to duty once again, this time by joining the French Army. Remarkably, he continued his work as an artist and illustrator for L Illustration, producing a series of now-famous works that documented the Great War. Born in 1873, Scott's career spanned over two decades, offering a unique perspective on the military conflicts of his time. This powerful portrait is a testament to Scott's dedication to his craft and his unwavering commitment to capturing the essence of the soldiers who fought in the trenches.
