The time has come and I now call for 300,000 recruits to form new armies - Those who are engaged on the production of war material of any kind should not leave their work. It is to men who are not performing this duty that I appeal. 16th May 1915''. Frank Brangwyn (1867-1956) was not an official war artist but he produced over 80 posters during the war, most with no payment.
