1. Title: "Bridport War Memorial: A Tribute to Heroes - G. Gilbert Scott's Commemorative Plan (1:2 foot scale) This evocative plan print depicts the Bridport War Memorial, designed by the renowned British architect, Sir Giles Gilbert Scott (1880-1960), an Associate of the Royal Academy (ARA) and Fellow of the Royal Institute of British Architects (FRIBA). The memorial, dedicated to the brave men and women of Bridport who served and sacrificed their lives during the First World War (1914-1918), stands as a poignant testament to their valour and sacrifice. The intricately detailed plan, measuring 1:2 foot scale, offers a topographical and military perspective of the memorial, revealing its comprehensive layout and design. The central feature is a tall, cross-shaped memorial column, surrounded by four smaller columns, symbolizing the unity and strength of the community in the face of adversity. The memorial's inscription, engraved on the columns, reads, "In proud and loving memory of the men of Bridport who gave their lives for their country in the Great War 1914-1919." The memorial also includes a circular basin, surrounded by benches, providing a tranquil space for reflection and remembrance. The design's military influence is evident in the inclusion of a bronze figure of a soldier, standing guard at the memorial's base, symbolizing the unwavering commitment and bravery of the fallen soldiers. This commemorative art piece, a significant historical document, serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the brave men and women of Bridport during the First World War. The intricate detail and historical significance of the plan make it a valuable addition to any collection focused on military history, topographical studies, or commemorative art.
