Theres Still a War On
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a poignant and satirical cartoon by Captain Bruce Bairnsfather, published in The Bystander magazine in 1919. The image captures the raw and often overlooked realities of life on the Western Front during the final days of World War I. In the illustration, two soldiers are depicted in a trench, engaged in a heated argument over a disputed piece of tobacco. The caption reads, "They've still got a war on in Limpoopoo Land yet; but the news may arrive any moment now; in which case, of course, this sort of friction will cease." The soldiers, with weary and haggard expressions, seem oblivious to the impending armistice, their focus solely on their petty disagreement. Bairnsfather's cartoon offers a stark contrast to the celebratory mood that was beginning to sweep across Europe as the war came to an end. The image serves as a reminder of the harsh realities and daily struggles faced by soldiers on the front lines, even as the promise of peace loomed on the horizon. The cartoonist's use of humor and satire to depict the human condition during wartime is a testament to his unique ability to capture the essence of the soldier's experience. "Theres Still a War On" is a powerful reminder of the complexities and contradictions of war, and the resilience and humor that soldiers found in even the most challenging of circumstances. Bairnsfather's work during World War I is considered a seminal contribution to the history of war cartoons, and his images continue to resonate with audiences today. This particular cartoon, with its poignant commentary on the human condition during wartime, is a testament to Bairnsfather's enduring legacy as a master of satire and a chronicler of history.
