EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating painting by the renowned Irish artist, Sir John Lavery. This masterpiece, created in 1917, offers a unique insight into the artist's world, merging the personal and the political. The painting depicts Lady Lavery, the artist's wife, standing at her studio window during a daylight air raid in London. The ominous clouds of war are juxtaposed with the tranquil scene inside the studio, creating a striking contrast. Upon closer inspection, the lower part of the window reveals an intriguing detail. Lady Lavery is seen faking a religious effigy, an act that adds an unexpected layer of complexity to the painting. The dark pigment used in the painting has somewhat obscured this detail, but the impasto of the under-painting is definitively visible.

The title "Daylight Raid from my Studio Window" suggests the disruption of daily life caused by the war, while the inclusion of Lady Lavery's deception adds a note of levity and resilience. The painting is a testament to the power of art to capture the human experience, even in the midst of chaos and adversity. Sir John Lavery's "Daylight Raid from my Studio Window, 7 July 1917" is a captivating work of art that invites viewers to explore its many layers and hidden details.
