An Army Tailor and and an ATS Tailoress

An Army Tailor and and an ATS Tailoress 1943 in the IWM exhibition. It is by Evelyn Dunbar who featured on the Post on September 21st last year (Land Girls 1941), whose Fish Queue is on the front of the Classic Good Evening, Mrs Craven, and about whom there has been an excellent book by Gill Clarke. Evelyn Dunbar was the greatest female war artist of the Second World War yet, alas, her work is still considered minor. Gill Clarke writes: 'The fact that Evelyn Dunbar did not seek publicity, was modest about her achievements and did not see herself as part of a clique has contributed to the neglect of her work.' We seem to have heard that somewhere before.
