Notes |
English: The most religious of the large Canadian War Memorials paintings, Sacrifice is also the most nationalistic. In the original oil study, the English artist had the figure of Christ facing the viewer. In the plans for Lord Beaverbrook's never-built war memorial art gallery in Ottawa, this painting takes pride of place. "The apotheosis by Charles Sims will be declaimed from the halls around the Central Dome," wrote Paul Konody, Beaverbrook's artistic adviser on the Canadian War Memorials Fund committee, in Art and War in 1919. |
