EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite commemorative art piece pays tribute to the enduring power of music and the indomitable spirit of those who served during the First World War. The printed fabric within the elegant gold-toned frame showcases the lyrics and music of "Till the Boys Come Home - Keep the Home Fires Burning," a poignant and popular song from the war era. The words were penned by Lena Guilbert Ford, and the music composed by Ivor Novello in 1914. The song gained immense popularity during the First World War, serving as a source of comfort and strength for families and loved ones left behind. The lyrics, which include the lines "Till the day breaks and the shadows flee away," resonated deeply with the public, reflecting the hope and longing for the safe return of soldiers from the battlefield. The frame also includes a signed photograph of Ivor Novello, adding an authentic touch to this historical art piece. Novello, a renowned English composer, actor, and singer, was a significant figure in the entertainment industry during the early 20th century and is best known for his contributions to the music of the First World War. This commemorative art piece is a testament to the power of art and music in preserving history and evoking emotion. It serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War and the enduring hope for the safe return of the boys to their homes and loved ones.
