EDITORS COMMENTS
Forwards, Italy!: A Stirring Depiction of Patriotic Children by Flora White (1915) This evocative image, titled "Forwards, Italy!" captures the spirit of determination and hope amidst the tumultuous backdrop of the First World War. Created by the talented British artist, Flora White, in 1915, the print showcases a group of earnest children, their faces filled with unwavering resolve, as they enthusiastically hold up a large 'Italy' flag. The title, 'Forwards, Italy!' is a rallying cry, urging the Italian people to press onward in their struggle against the Axis Powers. Flora White, a prolific and influential figure in the art world, made significant contributions to the war effort through her poignant and powerful works. This particular piece, with its emphasis on the innocence and resilience of children, serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War. The children's unified display of patriotism and their unwavering commitment to their homeland is a testament to the indomitable human spirit. The print, created in 1915, is a powerful symbol of the collective resolve of the Italian people during a time of great adversity. The use of vibrant colors and bold lines adds to the image's emotional impact, making it a captivating and enduring piece of art history. This print, with its rich historical significance and beautiful artistic merit, is an essential addition to any collection focusing on the First World War or the role of art in shaping public sentiment during times of conflict.
