When the Raider Drops In

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a humorous and ingenious illustration by the British artist Heath Robinson, created in 1917 during World War I. This print, now a cherished piece of historical art, offers a lighthearted yet practical take on the unexpected arrival of a German raider over the English Channel. The scene depicts a surprised yet determined British family in their humble cottage, as they face an imminent threat from an invading German airship looming ominously in the background. The father, dressed in a suit and holding a pitchfork, sits confidently on the back of the raider, while his wife and children huddle around him, waiting for help to arrive. The caption below the image reads, "Hints for householders for when a German raider drops in." The message is clear: do not surrender, but instead, take matters into your own hands and sit on the raider until reinforcements arrive. This illustration, a testament to the British spirit of resilience and determination during wartime, is a reminder of the creative ways in which people coped with the uncertainties and fears of war. It is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on the collective experience of World War I. (c)Courtesy of the Estate of Mrs J.C.Robinson/Pollinger Ltd/ILN/Mary Evans.
