Joseph Simpson (artist)

"Your Motherland Will Never Forget", illustration by Simpson from Canada in Khaki, a magazine published in Toronto between 1917 and 1919 that described the participation of Canadians in World War I and aimed to raise money for the Canadian War Memorial Fund. The illustration depicts a personification of the "Motherland" welcoming back a First World War soldier returning victorious from the front, as suggested by the German helmets on the soldier's backpack.[1]

Joseph William Simpson (1879–1939) was a British painter and etcher of portraits and sporting subjects, and a magazine illustrator.
