EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative pen and ink and grey wash drawing by Eric Dawson captures a poignant moment during the Second World War as members of the 2nd Battalion The Rifle Brigade donate blood in 1941. The image, which is unframed, was created during Dawson's military service, which spanned from 1940 to 1945. He served with the 2nd Battalion The Rifle Brigade, the Royal Engineers, and the Army Educational Corps in various theatres including North Africa, Syria, Palestine, and the Lebanon. The scene portrays a makeshift medical station, where soldiers are seated in chairs, their uniforms bearing the marks of battle. Each man is connected to a blood transfusion apparatus, their expressions a mix of determination and fatigue. The drawing masterfully conveys the sense of camaraderie and shared sacrifice among the soldiers, as they give of themselves to help their comrades in need. The drawing is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers during wartime, not just on the battlefield but also in the medical tent. Eric Dawson's artistry captures the human spirit and resilience in the face of adversity, making this a powerful and moving piece of military history.
