EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the essence of Armistice Day in Toronto, 1918. Painted by Joseph Ernest Sampson, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures an impressive 153.1x92.1 cm and is proudly displayed at the Canadian War Museum in Ottawa. The image transports us back to a momentous day marking the end of World War One. The streets are adorned with bunting and flags fluttering in the breeze as a jubilant crowd gathers to celebrate peace after years of turmoil. Ticker tape flutters down from above, adding to the festive atmosphere that fills every corner. The painting beautifully depicts a parade marching through the city streets, symbolizing unity and resilience during those challenging times. People from all walks of life come together to commemorate this historic event - men, women, children - their faces filled with joy and relief. As we gaze upon this artwork today, it serves as a powerful reminder of our collective history and honors those who sacrificed their lives for freedom. It encapsulates both the festivities and solemnity associated with Armistice Day celebrations across North America. Sampson's skillful brushstrokes bring life to each figure within the crowd; their expressions reflecting gratitude for peace restored but also acknowledging the sacrifices made along the way. This remarkable piece invites us to reflect on our shared past while inspiring hope for a future free from conflict – reminding us
