EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, depicted on an unmarked china mug, commemorates the signing of the peace treaty that ended the First World War in 1919. The transfer shows a poignant scene of a British soldier and a British sailor, heads bowed in reverence, standing before the Angel of Peace. Surrounding them, groups of young children wave the flags of the Allied nations in celebration. In the distance, ships at sea dot the horizon, symbolizing the return of peace after years of conflict. The intricate transfer on this commemorative ware, produced around the time of the armistice, captures the hope and relief that swept through Europe as the war came to an end. The image is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers and sailors during the First World War, and the ultimate goal of peace that was achieved. The unmarked china mug, with its delicate transfer and historical significance, is a treasure for any collector of military or naval history. The transfer reads "Peace 1919," making it a powerful reminder of the historical significance of the year and the end of the war. This unique piece of commemorative ware is a testament to the resilience and determination of the human spirit, and a reminder of the importance of peace in the face of adversity.
