EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print depicts General Sir Edmund Allenby, dated 20th May 1917, painted by the renowned military artist Lucien Hector Jonas. In February 1915, Jonas was officially accredited as Military Painter to the Musée de l'Armée in Paris. During the First World War, Jonas traveled extensively along all sections of the front lines, producing thousands of drawings, oil paintings, charcoals, sketches, and illustrations of various kinds. He was particularly well-known for his portraits of military leaders and soldiers in various national uniforms. Jonas's work captures the essence of the soldiers and commanders who fought in the Great War, offering a unique perspective into their lives and experiences. This print of General Allenby, who led the British Empire forces in the Middle East and Palestine during the war, is a testament to Jonas's skill and dedication. The intricate details and lifelike quality of the painting bring Allenby to life, transporting us back to a pivotal moment in history. Jonas's accreditation as Military Painter to the Musée de l'Armée granted him unprecedented access to the front lines, allowing him to create an extensive body of work that has since become an invaluable historical record. His art provides a visual narrative of the war, offering insights into the daily lives of soldiers and the strategic decisions made by military leaders. This print of General Allenby is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and women who served during the First World War and the important role that art plays in preserving their stories for future generations.
