EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the West Front of Ypres Cathedral as seen from the foot of the Cloth Hall tower during the First World War. The image is the work of British artist Ernest Procter (1886-1935), who served as an ambulance driver and official artist with the Friends Ambulance Unit from 1916 to 1917, and later became an official war artist for the Ministry of Information from 1918 to 1919. The West Front of Ypres Cathedral, located in the heart of Flanders, Belgium, was a prominent landmark in the region during the war. The cathedral, with its intricate Gothic architecture and towering spires, had survived numerous battles and sieges throughout history. However, during the First World War, it was repeatedly shelled and damaged, making this view from the Cloth Hall a poignant reminder of the cathedral's resilience and endurance. Procter's topographical painting offers a unique perspective of the West Front, with the cathedral's arches and intricate details clearly visible against the backdrop of the war-torn landscape. The image also provides a glimpse into the interior of the cathedral, with its stained glass windows casting a soft, ethereal glow. Procter's service as an official artist during the war allowed him to document the devastation and destruction caused by the conflict, as well as the beauty and resilience of the landscape and its people. His work serves as an important historical record of the First World War and the impact it had on the people and places of Flanders.
