EDITORS COMMENTS
Captain Bruce Bairnsfather's "How they are produced" is an autobiographical series of sketches that offer a humorous and insightful look into the life of a cartoonist during World War One. In this print from 1916, Bairnsfather is depicted in various scenes showing how he creates his famous Fragments in France. The cartoonist is first seen wrapped up warm in a trench or dugout, sketching in the mud and rain of the Western Front. Despite the harsh conditions, Bairnsfather's determination to create art is evident as he continues to draw. The next scene shows him in a shelled building, seeking shelter from the relentless bombardment. Amidst the chaos and destruction, Bairnsfather remains focused on his work, sketching frantically as the world around him crumbles. The final scene in the series shows Bairnsfather injured and convalescing in bed. Despite his own injuries, he continues to draw, proving that his passion for art knows no bounds. These sketches offer a unique perspective on life for the typical British Tommy during the war, and show the resilience and determination of the human spirit in the face of adversity. Bairnsfather's Fragments were widely popular during World War One, and continue to be appreciated today for their humor, insight, and historical significance. This print is a testament to the artist's ability to find joy and meaning in even the most challenging of circumstances.
