EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful print titled "Unconquerable" we witness a heroic woman carrying forward the tattered flag of Belgium after the invasion by the Germans in 1914. The image, originally an illustration by Arthur Rackham and published in King Albert's Book in 1915, serves as a poignant allegory for the resilience and indomitable spirit of the Belgian people during their darkest hour. The torn and weathered banner symbolizes the devastating effects of war on Belgium, while the determined figure represents their unwavering determination to rise above defeat. Despite facing unimaginable hardships and witnessing their homeland being ravaged by conflict, these brave individuals refuse to succumb to despair. This artwork alludes to one of history's most significant events - World War I - where Belgium found itself caught in the midst of great turmoil. It also serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos and destruction, hope can still prevail. Arthur Rackham's skillful depiction captures both the physical devastation caused by war and the inner strength that allows humanity to endure. This image was undoubtedly used as propaganda during its time, aiming to inspire unity among Belgians and garner support from other nations. Ken Welsh's reproduction ensures that this historical moment is not forgotten; it invites us to reflect on our own capacity for resilience when faced with adversity. As we gaze upon this print, may we be reminded of those who have fought bravely before us and find inspiration within ourselves to carry forward against all odds.
