EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "So Obvious: The Young and Talkative One - Who Made That Ole The Fed-up One: Mice," is a classic piece of military humor from the trenches of World War I. Created by renowned British cartoonist, Captain Bruce Bairnsfather, this image is a testament to the camaraderie and resilience of soldiers during the Great War. Captain Bruce Bairnsfather, born in 1888, served in the 1st Battalion of the Royal Warwickshire Regiment during WWI. He is best known for his popular comic strip "Fragments from France," which satirically depicted the daily life and struggles of soldiers in the trenches. This particular print, created around 1915, showcases two soldiers in a lighthearted moment, with one soldier, the "Young and Talkative One," trying to distract his companion, "The Fed-up One," from his frustration by playing with a mouse. The intricate details of the soldiers' uniforms, weapons, and equipment provide a glimpse into the historical context of the war, making this print not only an entertaining piece but also an essential addition to any military history collection. The print's humorous yet poignant commentary on the soldiers' experiences during WWI adds depth and context to the often-grim realities of war. This print, available from Mary Evans Prints Online, is a reminder of the human side of military history and the importance of finding moments of levity and connection even in the most challenging circumstances.
