Derry Henley Peace Release Rhymes Toms Rhythms
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative poster, the serene image of a shepherd and his flock juxtaposes the remnants of war, as an abandoned battlefield lies before them with a barbed wire fence and an artillery piece. The scene is a poignant reminder of the longing for peace that follows the tumultuous chaos of conflict. The poster, titled "Peace. The peace of the great release, Henleys Rhymes & Rhythms, Derry & Toms," is believed to be an advertisement for a book by the renowned poet, William Ernest Henley. Sold at the prestigious Derry & Toms department store in London around 1918, the poster invites viewers to explore the power of poetry in finding solace and healing in the aftermath of war. Henley's collection of verses, "Rhymes & Rhythms," offers a balm for the soul, providing a momentary escape from the harsh realities of the world and a reminder of the enduring beauty of peace. The image of the shepherd and his flock, safely gathered in the stillness of the landscape, symbolizes the hope for a peaceful existence, free from the horrors of war.
