EDITORS COMMENTS
This iconic print captures the essence of resilience and determination in the face of adversity. "Ils ne passeront pas" or "They shall not pass" is a powerful message that resonates with soldiers and civilians alike, reminding us of the unwavering spirit to defend what is dear to us.
Captain Bruce Bairnsfather's cartoon featuring his beloved character, Old Bill, adds a touch of humor to the seriousness of war. Old soldiers never say die; they'll simply block the way with their courage and strength. The image of a soldier holding a bayonet symbolizes both defense and defiance against any threat that may come their way.
As we look back on this piece from 1918, during the tumultuous times of World War I, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by those who fought for freedom and peace. The legacy left behind by these brave individuals continues to inspire generations to stand up against oppression and injustice.
Let this print serve as a tribute to all those who have served their country with honor and valor. May we never forget their bravery in the face of danger, as they stood firm in their resolve: Ils ne passeront pas - They shall not pass.
