EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative World War I propaganda postcard, titled "Lords of the Sea," depicts a group of sailors proudly standing before a towering sandcastle adorned with the Union Jack flag. The message written on the sandcastle, "Anyone wanting to tackle our fleet? Come if you dare, you will quickly retreat! Ready and steady and ready are we, Kings of the Castle and Lords of the sea!", reflects the unwavering confidence and patriotism of the British Navy during this time. The image is filled with symbolism, as the sandcastle represents the invulnerability of the British home front, while the sailors, dressed in their navy suits, embody the strength and readiness of the naval force. The boys playing in the background, building their own sandcastle, serve as a reminder of the innocence and hope that endured amidst the chaos of war. The postcard, dated circa 1916, is a powerful reminder of the spirit of defiance and determination that characterized the British people during World War I. The image of the Lords of the Sea, standing firm against any potential threat, continues to resonate as a symbol of the enduring strength and resilience of the British people and their naval supremacy.
