Lines Composed after Listening to Europe Broadcasting
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a lithographic print created by Pont (Graham Laidler) in the early twentieth century. This artwork, now part of a private collection, was originally featured as an illustration for "The British Carry On" a collection of wartime drawings published in 1940. The image transports us back to the turbulent years of the Second World War, specifically the 1940s. It depicts a quintessentially British scene - people patiently queuing in line. In this historical context, however, these lines take on added significance. They represent not only ordinary daily routines but also resilience and determination amidst war's challenges. Pont's artistic talent shines through his humorous depiction of this scene. With wit and charm, he captures the spirit of Britain during those trying times. The artist uses satire to poke fun at propaganda and its impact on society while providing much-needed comic relief during such dark days. This lithograph serves as both a historical document and an entertaining piece of art. It reminds us that even in times of hardship, humor can be found if we look closely enough. Through Pont's clever composition and skillful execution, we are transported into an era filled with courage and camaraderie. As viewers engage with this print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, they are invited to reflect upon history while appreciating the power that art holds in capturing moments that transcend time itself
