EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating lithograph titled "Attack, the best defence, 1914-19" depicts a momentous naval engagement during World War I. Created by an anonymous English artist in the 20th century, this print showcases an aeroplane convoy that proved successful against German submarines. In this scene of intense warfare, a warship and boat are locked in combat on the open sea. The air is filled with tension as torpedo-laden aircraft soar above, ready to strike at any moment. This artwork encapsulates the essence of the phrase "attack is the best defence" highlighting the strategic importance of proactive measures in times of conflict. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the bravery and innovation displayed by military forces during World War I. It captures both the relentless fighting spirit and technological advancements that characterized this era. The biplane featured prominently in this litho symbolizes progress and adaptability amidst adversity. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece from our private collection, we are transported back to a time when nations clashed and heroes emerged. The engraving's intricate details bring to life every element of this dramatic confrontation – from billowing smoke to crashing waves – evoking emotions of awe and admiration for those who fought valiantly during one of history's most significant conflicts. This work not only commemorates past sacrifices but also invites us to reflect on how lessons learned from these experiences can shape our present and future endeavors for peace.
