EDITORS COMMENTS
The vibrant lithograph depicts a moment of courage and heroism during the intense naval warfare of World War I. Midshipman Reginald Himbury stands tall on the deck of the Clan McTavish, assisting the gunners in their fierce battle against the German raider Moewe. The scene captures a pivotal moment on 16th January 1916, as Himbury fearlessly aids his comrades in defending their merchant ship from enemy fire. Amidst the chaos and danger of war, this print showcases both bravery and camaraderie. The British sailors work together with determination and skill to protect their vessel and ensure its safe passage through treacherous waters. The artist, Allan Stewart, beautifully portrays every detail - from the firing guns to the focused expressions on each sailor's face. This artwork is part of "Deeds That Thrill The Empire" an illustrated book published by Standard Art Book Co around 1919. It serves as a testament to the countless acts of heroism displayed by individuals like Midshipman Reginald Himbury throughout World War I. The lithograph not only commemorates this specific event but also pays tribute to all those who fought bravely during that tumultuous time. It reminds us of the sacrifices made by these courageous men and women for their country's sake. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded that even amidst darkness and destruction, there will always be shining examples of valor that inspire us all.
