Banking at 4000 Feet (from The Great War: Britain's Efforts and Ideals - Building Aircraft) by C.R.W. Nevinson, lithograph

Fine Art, In Storage, FA04048

Nevinson made this print in 1917 as part of an ambitious multi-artist lithographic project known as 'The Great War: Britain's Efforts and Ideals' - a propagandist publishing scheme commissioned by the government’s Department of Information. For the 'Efforts' side of the series, nine artists each made six prints on assigned themes. Nevinson's theme was Building Aircraft, while others included Making Soldiers, Making Sailors (curiously there was no ‘Making Airmen’), Making Guns, and Building Ships. The aim of the series was to persuade people to contribute to the war effort, as serving personnel in the Armed Forces, factory workers or fabricators.
