EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative portrait captures the essence of a young woman of the World War I era, as rendered by the skilled hand of amateur artist George Ranstead. Dated circa 1916, the drawing showcases the subject in profile, her youthful features framed by a delicate bonnet and a cascade of wavy locks. Ranstead, who served in the Army Pay Corps, was one of many soldiers of the Great War who found solace and expression in the art of drawing. His works, which range from wartime humor to portraits of pretty girls, reflect the influence of the illustrated magazines of the period. This postcard-sized drawing, with its intricate details and subtle shading, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of innocence and hope amidst the turmoil of war. The young woman's serene expression and the artist's deft touch serve as a poignant reminder of the human spirit's ability to find beauty and meaning even in the most challenging of times.
