EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "C is for captain" takes us back to the 19th century, a time of great historical significance. Created by the renowned Dalziel Brothers, this color lithograph showcases their exceptional talent and attention to detail. The image depicts an alphabet book illustration from around 1880, where each letter represents a different aspect of life during that era. In this particular artwork, 'C' stands for captain, symbolizing the importance of leadership in the armed forces. The scene portrays a group of soldiers dressed in their summer uniforms, wearing distinctive hats and sombreros. They are seen engaged in various activities such as reading mail or writing letters - highlighting the significance of communication even during times of conflict. Amidst these soldiers stands a female soldier who breaks gender stereotypes by proudly serving alongside her male counterparts. This inclusion adds depth and diversity to the artwork while reflecting societal changes occurring at that time. Notably, two black bears can be spotted in the background, adding an element of surprise and humor to this otherwise serious depiction. The presence of these animals suggests a lighthearted touch amidst military discipline. Overall, this historic lithograph not only educates viewers about army life but also offers insight into fashion trends and cultural norms prevalent during that period. With its vibrant colors and meticulous detailing, it serves as both an educational tool and a visual delight for art enthusiasts worldwide.
