EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming print captures a whimsical moment during the tumultuous era of World War I. The image, titled "Beware of Submarines WW1," shows a lady swimmer playfully mimicking a submarine with her fake periscope, showcasing a lighthearted sense of humor amidst the seriousness of war.
The scene is set circa 1916, when submarines were becoming increasingly prevalent in naval warfare. Despite the dangers they posed, this anonymous artist chose to portray submarines in a comical light through this clever depiction.
Published as a postcard by Raphael Tuck, this artwork reflects the creativity and resilience of individuals during times of adversity. It serves as a reminder that even in the darkest moments, there is room for laughter and imagination.
The Peter & Dawn Cope Collection has preserved this piece of history, allowing us to glimpse into the past and appreciate the ingenuity of artists from that time. Through their efforts, we are able to connect with our shared heritage and gain insight into how people coped with uncertainty and fear.
As we admire this photograph, let us remember those who lived through World War I and honor their strength in facing challenges head-on. May we also take inspiration from the lady swimmer's playful spirit as we navigate our own struggles today.
