The powerful lithograph titled "Drummer Kenny rescuing a comrade under very heavy fire" captures a moment of extraordinary heroism during the tumultuous times of World War I. Created by Howard K. Elcock, this print showcases the courageous act of Drummer William Kenny VC, a member of the 2nd Battalion, The Gordon Highlanders. In this harrowing scene from October 23rd, 1914, amidst the chaos and danger of trench warfare, Drummer Kenny fearlessly ventures into enemy fire to save his wounded comrade. With bullets whizzing past and explosions rocking the battlefield, he navigates through barbed wire obstacles with unwavering determination. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the bravery exhibited by soldiers in the face of adversity during one of history's most devastating conflicts. It highlights not only Drummer Kenny's selflessness but also pays tribute to all those who risked their lives for others on that fateful day. Elcock's meticulous attention to detail brings this heroic rescue to life; every brushstroke reflects both the intensity and desperation present in such dire circumstances. This lithograph stands as an enduring testament to courage and sacrifice amid unimaginable horrors. As we gaze upon this artwork from our private collection today, let us remember those who fought valiantly in World War I and honor their unwavering spirit in preserving peace and freedom for future generations.
