The present lot is one of a limited number of watercolours produced by Joseph Southall during the First World War. Born into a Quaker family, Southall was a pacifist and spent much of the war campaigning, and producing anti-war posters and cartoons. 1916 saw a major Arts and Crafts Exhibition at the Royal Academy, London. As a member of the movement, Southall presented a very small selection of works at the exhibition, all relating to his pacifist beliefs.
