The Welcome to Our Citizen Soldiers
EDITORS COMMENTS
litho by Ralph Cleaver captures a poignant moment in history, as depicted in this photo print. The image portrays the delayed arrival of the City Imperial Volunteers (CIV) at the War Office, with street scenes bustling around them. The title "Hope deferred maketh the Heart Sick" perfectly encapsulates the emotions conveyed through this artwork. The artist skillfully depicts a cityscape in which hope and anticipation are palpable. The viewer is transported back to 1900, feeling a sense of empathy for these citizen soldiers who have eagerly awaited their arrival at their destination. Cleaver's attention to detail brings life to every element within the composition - from intricate engravings adorning buildings to individuals onlookers expressing various emotions. This lithograph serves as a reminder of both the sacrifices made by these brave men and women and the impact war has on society as a whole. It evokes feelings of admiration for those who serve their country while also highlighting the toll that prolonged waiting can take on one's spirit. As we gaze upon this powerful image, we are reminded of our shared history and how it shapes our present-day world. This print is not just an artistic masterpiece but also an important historical document that allows us to reflect upon past events and honor those who have fought for our freedom.
