EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured cotton print depicts the enigmatic image of The Angel of Mons, a renowned legend from the early days of World War I. The Angel of Mons, also known as the "Mons Vision," is a reported apparition of an angel that appeared to the men of the British Expeditionary Force (BEF) on August 15, 1914, during the Battle of Mons in Belgium. The BEF, outnumbered and outflanked by the German forces, were preparing for a desperate retreat. As darkness fell, the soldiers huddled in their trenches, their spirits low and their morale at an all-time low. Suddenly, a brilliant light pierced the night, and the figure of an angel appeared, clad in robes of dazzling white, with wings outstretched and a sword in hand. The angel was said to have reassured the soldiers that they would be protected and that they would ultimately emerge victorious. This evocative commemorative art piece, with its rich, vibrant colours and intricate details, captures the essence of this inspiring tale. The image of The Angel of Mons became a symbol of hope and courage for the British troops, and the legend spread rapidly throughout the country, boosting morale and fueling the determination of the soldiers to fight on. The print, with its historical significance, is an invaluable addition to any collection of World War I memorabilia or military art. It is a poignant reminder of the bravery and resilience of the men and women who served during this pivotal period in history, and a testament to the enduring power of hope and faith in the face of adversity.
