Description |
English: In 1917 British painter Clare Atwood (1866-1962) was commissioned to execute a large picture depicting the life of Canadian Expeditionary Force in England. The appropriateness of subject matter for women artists was still a consideration during the 1914-1918 conflict, and women were not commissioned to depict the battlefield. Portraits and scenes of homefront activity were assigned to women artists, and Atwood - who had gained recognition for her interior scenes - was chosen for the commission. A visit to Folkstone in Kent, England was arranged to help Atwood gather ideas for the work. The artist, however, chose the poignant setting of a Y.M.C.A. canteen at one of London's railway station as the subject for the painting |
