EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Nursing Caricatures by Fred May," showcases a collection of nursing personalities who served during the First World War. Each portrait, created by the talented hand of British artist Fred May in 1918, captures the essence and spirit of the individuals who dedicated themselves to the care of wounded soldiers in hospitals in France. The depicted nursing personalities include Sister Ord, Sister Hill, Sister Preston, Sister Brown, Sister Arthur, Sister Elcoat, and Sister Halliday. Each woman is portrayed with a unique blend of humor and respect, highlighting their resilience and determination in the face of the challenging conditions of the war. During the First World War, nursing personnel played a crucial role in the care and recovery of soldiers. These women, many of whom were volunteers, worked tirelessly in hospitals located in the war zone, often under difficult circumstances. Their selflessness and dedication were essential to the wellbeing of the wounded soldiers and to the overall success of the war effort. Fred May, a renowned British cartoonist, captured the spirit and personalities of these remarkable women in his caricatures. May's ability to infuse humor and warmth into his work adds a humanizing touch to the historical record, allowing us to connect with these nursing personalities and appreciate their contributions to history. This print, with its rich historical significance and artistic merit, is a testament to the indomitable spirit of the nursing personnel who served during the First World War. It is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices and dedication of these women, who played a vital role in the care and recovery of wounded soldiers and in the eventual victory of the Allied forces.
