EDITORS COMMENTS
Obviously!: A WWI-era Humorous Take on Soldier's Frustrations by Captain Bruce Bairnsfather in The Bystander (1915) This print, titled "Obviously! The young and talkative one: 'What made that ole!' The fed-up one: 'mice,'" is a classic example of the satirical cartoons created by Captain Bruce Bairnsfather during the First World War. Published in The Bystander on October 22, 1915, this cartoon offers a humorous insight into the daily life and struggles of soldiers during the war. The scene depicts two soldiers standing in front of a hole in the wall, with one soldier, the young and talkative one, asking, "What made that ole?" The other soldier, visibly frustrated, responds, "mice." This exchange highlights the monotony and tedium of life in the trenches, where even the smallest disturbances could lead to frustration and irritation. Bairnsfather's cartoons, which were first published in The Bystander in 1914, quickly gained popularity due to their ability to capture the essence of soldiers' experiences during the war. His unique blend of humor and insight into the soldiers' daily lives made his work an invaluable contribution to the historical record of WWI. This print, in particular, is a poignant reminder of the challenges and frustrations faced by soldiers during the war. The mundane and seemingly insignificant issue of a hole in the wall becomes a source of frustration for the soldiers, illustrating the way in which even the smallest disruptions could impact their morale. As we reflect on the history of WWI, Bairnsfather's cartoons offer a unique perspective into the lives of the soldiers who experienced it firsthand. This print, with its humorous and insightful take on the soldiers' daily struggles, is a testament to the enduring power of art to capture and preserve history.
