EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the determination and dedication of Viscountess Charlemont, formerly Evelyn Hull (later known as Hall, after her marriage to James Caulfield, Viscount Charlemont), during her extraordinary contribution to the British war effort in 1915. With her husband declared unfit for military service during World War One, Evelyn voluntarily took on a role at Woolwich Arsenal, eventually becoming the inspector of munitions in 1916. Her tireless efforts extended beyond the arsenal, as she also played a significant role in recruiting for the war effort. The Tatler magazine reported that she worked a twelve-hour day, embodying the spirit of resilience and selflessness that defined the war years. The aristocrat's poised demeanor and regal attire in this portrait serve as a testament to her strength and the indomitable spirit of women during this pivotal period in history.
