Follow the Drum,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a powerful and evocative painting by the renowned British artist Frank Dadd (1851-1929), was transformed into a recruiting poster during the early days of the Great War. This poignant image, created by Dadd in his capacity as a master painter of military subjects, was reproduced as a poster and issued by the late Mr. J.C. Eno, a respected figure in his own right for his contributions to the food industry through his company, Enos Fruit Salts. The poster, which dates back to 1914, features a determined young soldier, dressed in full military regalia, following the beat of a drum as he marches off to war. The painting's original title, "The Call to the Colors," encapsulates the sense of duty, courage, and patriotism that the poster aimed to inspire in potential recruits during this pivotal moment in history. The haunting image of the soldier, with his gaze fixed on the horizon and his heart filled with resolve, served as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices that were being made in the name of country and freedom. The poster's impact was undeniable, as it helped to galvanize support for the war effort and encourage young men to answer the call to arms. Today, "Follow the Drum" stands as a testament to the indomitable spirit of those who served during the Great War and the enduring power of art to inspire and motivate.
