EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the Polson Iron Work Yard in all its industrial glory during the height of World War I. The focal point of the image is the imposing Ship War Hydra, proudly displayed on stocks as a symbol of Canada's contribution to the war effort. The artist, Robert Ford Gagen, skillfully brings this scene to life with his watercolor technique on paper. The bustling activity in the shipyard is evident as men work diligently amidst cranes and docks, showcasing their craftsmanship and dedication to building these mighty vessels. The coastal backdrop adds an element of grandeur and emphasizes Canada's strong maritime heritage. As we gaze upon this painting, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in history when nations united against a common enemy. It serves as a reminder of the immense sacrifices made by Canadians during World War I and their significant role in shaping global events. Displayed at the Canadian War Museum in Ottawa, this artwork stands as a testament to Canada's industrial prowess and its commitment to supporting allied forces during times of conflict. Its presence within our cultural landscape allows us to reflect upon our nation's rich history while honoring those who played a part in defending freedom and peace.
