EDITORS COMMENTS
This folio of twelve captivating drawings captures the essence of War Work at Westwood Works in Peterborough during the First World War. Created by renowned British artist Rudolph Ihlee (1883-1968), these lithographs offer a unique insight into the collaboration between Perkins Engineers Limited and Joseph Baker and Sons Limited at the Westwood Works site. Ihlee, a London native and graduate of the prestigious Slade School of Fine Arts, had a successful artistic career in England and Wales before moving to Collioure, France in 1921. However, his most poignant works emerged during his time at the Westwood Drawing Office between 1910 and 1918. Each drawing in this collection masterfully depicts the industrious atmosphere of the war effort, with workers diligently toiling to contribute to the war effort. Ihlee's exceptional talent is evident in the intricate details and dynamic compositions, making these drawings an invaluable historical record of the time. This collection provides a powerful visual narrative of the collaboration and resilience that took place during the First World War at Westwood Works.
