Drums and Fifes by H. M. Bateman
An old man, dozing on a bench, is disturbed by the distant sound of the drums and fifes of a marching military band. Suffused with patriotism, he races off to find them and falls in, marching alongside. Published in The Tatler in the opening weeks of the Second World War, Batemans choice of subject seems to have an underlying patriotism. Date: 1939

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative print by renowned British satirist H.M. Bateman, an old man peacefully dozing on a park bench is roused from his slumber by the distant, stirring sounds of drums and fifes. The source of the music is revealed to be a marching military band, and with a surge of patriotism and youthful spirit, the elderly gentleman springs to his feet and races after them. Published in The Tatler during the opening weeks of World War II, Bateman's choice of subject seems to reflect the mood of the time and the call to duty that was resonating throughout the nation. The humorous yet poignant scene captures the spirit of camaraderie and determination that would come to define the war years. Bateman's masterful use of line and shading creates a sense of energy and movement, while the contrast between the old man's peaceful interlude and the sudden disruption of the military band adds to the overall impact of the image. This print is a testament to the enduring power of music and patriotism to inspire and unite, even in the most challenging of times.
