EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures Sir David Muirhead Bone (1876-1953) during his service as the first official war artist for Britain in 1916. Appointed in May of that year, Bone was commissioned as an honorary second lieutenant and arrived in France amidst the chaos of the Battle of the Somme. In this image, taken at Ypres, he is seen wearing his military uniform and holding a sketchbook and pencils, a testament to his dual roles as an artist and soldier. Bone served with the Allied forces on the Western Front, documenting the war through his art. He also spent some time with the Royal Navy, capturing the naval battles that were a crucial part of the conflict. This photograph was taken during that period, likely during a brief respite from the intense fighting. The First World War, also known as WWI or the Great War, lasted from 1914 to 1918. It was a global military conflict that involved millions of soldiers and civilians, and resulted in the deaths of an estimated 9 million soldiers and 7 million civilians. The war had a profound impact on the world, shaping the political, social, and cultural landscape for decades to come. Bone's artwork from the war is an invaluable historical record of this pivotal moment in history. His sketches and paintings provide a unique perspective on the war, offering a glimpse into the daily life and experiences of soldiers and civilians during this time. This photograph, taken in 1916, is a poignant reminder of Bone's important contribution to the historical record of the First World War.
