Eyes Left - A Coquette's Peek of Patriotism in WW1
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative illustration, titled "Eyes Left," is a captivating work by the renowned New Zealand artist, Edmund Blampied, created in 1915 for the cover of the Sketch magazine supplement. The illustration showcases a beautiful young woman, her eyes peeking out from behind a Union Jack fan adorned with intricate flag designs. The image exudes an air of flirtatiousness and playfulness, as the woman seems to be engaging in a coquettish act of peeking at an unseen admirer. The Union Jack flags, a symbol of British patriotism, add an extra layer of significance to the image. The year 1915 marked a pivotal moment in World War I, with the Battle of the Somme and the Gallipoli Campaign unfolding. The use of the Union Jack fan as a decorative accessory highlights the women's support for the war efforts and their patriotic sentiments. Blampied's skillful use of color and composition creates a striking visual narrative. The woman's delicate features, rosy cheeks, and the soft, flowing fabric of her dress contrast sharply with the bold, vibrant colors of the Union Jack flags. The playful expression on her face and the subtle curve of her lips suggest a hint of mischief and flirtation. "Eyes Left" is a poignant reminder of the role women played during the First World War, both on the home front and in their support of the troops. The image encapsulates the spirit of patriotism, femininity, and the enduring power of a coquettish peek. This illustration continues to resonate with viewers, offering a glimpse into the past and the complex emotions that defined a generation.
