EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures Clare Sheridan (1885-1970), a remarkable English sculptress and writer, amidst her creations: a series of figures of women war workers she sculpted in 1918 for the Women's Work section of the newly established Imperial War Museum. The backdrop of World War I served as a profound source of inspiration for Sheridan, whose personal loss intertwined with the collective grief and resilience of the nation. Tragedy struck close to home when her husband, a Lieutenant in the Rifle Brigade, was killed at the Battle of Loos in 1915. In the face of such devastation, Sheridan channelled her grief into her art, creating poignant and powerful depictions of the unsung heroines of the war effort. As a cousin of Winston Churchill through her mother Clarita Jerome, Sheridan's artistic talent and determination were not surprising. Her figurines, which capture the spirit and determination of women war workers, were commemorative pieces that served to honor the vital role women played during this pivotal period in history. The photograph shows Sheridan standing proudly next to one of her finished figures, her expression reflecting both the intensity of her craft and the deep connection she felt to the women she was immortalizing. The image is a poignant reminder of the transformative power of art, particularly during times of great upheaval and loss. This photograph, taken in 1918, is a testament to Clare Sheridan's enduring legacy as a sculptress and her significant contribution to the historical record of the First World War. It is an image that continues to resonate with audiences today, as we reflect on the sacrifices and achievements of those who lived through that era and the indelible mark they left on history.
