EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a recruitment poster titled "Remember Scarborough! Enlist Now" created by Edith Kemp-Welch in 1914. The vibrant color lithograph depicts the aftermath of the German bombing of Scarborough on December 16th, 1914. With its powerful imagery, this poster aimed to evoke a sense of patriotism and rally men to join the war effort during World War I. The scene depicted in the poster is one of devastation and chaos. Flames engulf buildings as smoke billows into the sky, symbolizing the destruction caused by enemy attacks. Amidst this turmoil, a Union Jack flag stands tall, representing British resilience and unity in the face of adversity. The message conveyed through this recruitment poster is clear: it urges men to enlist immediately by reminding them of the tragic events that unfolded in Scarborough. The attack resulted in 78 deaths and left 228 injured, serving as a stark reminder of why their service was needed to defend their country. As part of an extensive collection owned by The Stapleton Collection, this historic artwork serves as both an advertisement for recruitment and a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during wartime. It encapsulates not only the propaganda campaigns employed during World War I but also reflects upon themes such as burning patriotism and national duty. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate Kemp-Welch's artistic talent while providing insight into a significant moment in history – when individuals were called upon to serve their nation with unwavering courage and determination.
