EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative illustration, titled "Canada Forever," was created by renowned British satirical artist Bruce Bairnsfather in 1917, during the height of the First World War. The illustration depicts a stoic Canadian soldier standing atop the ruins of Vimy Ridge in France, gazing out at the rolling hills and verdant landscape below. The soldier clutches a map of Canada in one hand and raises his other hand in a salute, symbolizing his unwavering commitment and loyalty to his homeland. The illustration holds significant historical importance as it was sold at auction during a special matinee performance of the new review "Hello! Canada" at His Majesty's Theatre in London. The matinee was held in aid of St. Dunstan's Hostel for Blinded Soldiers and Sailors, an organization dedicated to providing support and care for veterans who had been blinded during the war. The first performance of "Hello! Canada" marked an important moment in Canadian history, as it was the first time a Canadian review had been presented on the West End stage. Bairnsfather's illustration served as the cover art for the program for this groundbreaking event, and it remains a powerful symbol of Canadian patriotism and resilience during a time of great adversity. The illustration captures the spirit of the Canadian soldiers who fought valiantly on the battlefields of Europe and the determination of the Canadian people back home to support their troops and rebuild their lives after the war.
