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

Public domain

The author died in 1962, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 60 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
