Abstract

Exploration of six lithographs from 1917 on the subject of 'Building Aircraft' by C.R.W. Nevinson and of six on the subject of 'Making Soldiers' by Eric Kennington within the context of the 1917 set of 166 British lithographic propaganda prints entitled 'Britain's Efforts and Ideals.' The prints were first exhibited in London in July 1917. My essay discusses why the designs specifically produced by Nevinson and Kennington were the most popular with the British public - among contribution by 16 other leading British artists.
