Nautical Terms Illustrated IV - Crossing the Line
A sailor flirts with a woman over her washing line drawn by Harold Earnshaw, artist husband of Mabel Lucie Attwell.
Earnshaw was a successful artist who joined the Artists Rifles at the outbreak of war. He was a Lance-Corporal with the Sussex Regiment when his right arm was blown off on the Somme in February 1916. He taught himself to draw with his left and continued to work for magazines such as The Bystander and the Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News in which this picture was published. Despite making such a remarkable recovery he died prematurely in 1937 at the age of just 52.
