Harry Lawrence Oakley Rifle Silhouettes War Time
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative silhouette captures the essence of a soldier in wartime, as depicted in a print by H.L. Oakley titled 'Harry, the Soldier.' The soldier is shown in profile, his tall tin helmet casting a stark contrast against the setting sun. The silhouette of his uniform, complete with the distinctive ridges of his shoulder epaulets and the bulge of his ammunition belt, adds to the sense of solidity and determination. The soldier carries his rifle on his back, its long barrel slung over one shoulder, ready for action. The print, titled 'Harry,' likely refers to the anonymous soldier depicted, a common theme in war art and literature. The use of the silhouette technique heightens the sense of mystery and timelessness, as the figure becomes a symbol of the countless men and women who have served in the military throughout history. The print, created by H.L. Oakley and available through Mary Evans Prints Online, is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers during times of war.
