EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Temptation," is a classic cartoon by the renowned British satirical artist, Captain Bruce Bairnsfather, created in 1918 during the height of the First World War. Published in The Bystander magazine, this humorous illustration offers a brief respite from the harsh realities of the war. In this whimsical scene, a famished German soldier sits on the ground, his gaunt face etched with longing as he gazes at a dachshund lying in the grass. The soldier's imagination, fueled by his intense hunger, transforms the harmless dachshund into an enticing sausage, complete with a tantalizing mustard-yellow label. The soldier's eyes widen in desire as he reaches out to grasp the sausage, only to be brought back to reality by the sudden appearance of the actual dachshund, who looks up at him with a quizzical expression. Bairnsfather's "Temptation" is a testament to the power of the human imagination and the lengths people will go to satisfy their cravings, even in the most trying of circumstances. This historical print offers a unique glimpse into the experiences and thoughts of soldiers during the First World War, providing a poignant reminder of the challenges and hardships they faced. Captain Bruce Bairnsfather, a decorated veteran himself, used his art to bring laughter and levity to the masses during a time of great turmoil. "Temptation" is a prime example of his ability to capture the human condition and the absurdities of war in a way that continues to resonate with audiences today.
