We Look Before and After
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a poignant and humorous cartoon by Captain Bruce Bairnsfather, published in The Bystander magazine in 1916 during the height of the First World War. The image captures the grim reality of trench warfare experienced by soldiers on the Western Front. The cartoon depicts two soldiers huddled together in a muddy trench, peering over the edge with determined expressions on their faces. One soldier, wearing a gas mask and holding a binoculars, is looking out into no man's land, while the other, with a cigarette dangling from his mouth, is looking back at him with a worried expression. The caption above the scene reads, "We Look Before and After." The image is a stark reminder of the constant danger and uncertainty that soldiers faced during the war. The use of humor, however, adds a layer of resilience and camaraderie to the scene. The soldiers' determination to look before and after, to assess the situation and prepare for whatever may come, is a testament to their courage and survival instincts. The cartoon also highlights the harsh conditions of trench warfare, with the soldiers surrounded by mud, water, and debris. The image is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers during the war and the importance of looking out for one another in the face of adversity. Captain Bruce Bairnsfather, a British soldier and cartoonist, created a series of cartoons during the war, many of which were published in The Bystander. His work provided a unique perspective on the war, offering a glimpse into the daily lives and experiences of soldiers in the trenches. "We Look Before and After" is a particularly poignant and enduring image from this collection, capturing the bravery, resilience, and camaraderie of soldiers during the First World War.
