This is a print.

This is the printed cover page from The Sphere dated January 1st 1916 and is taken from Matania's personal archives.

The scene depicts a Tommy returning home for Christmas 1915. Because of poor communications the families did not know when and if their men folk would arrive. The first intimation was a knock at the door.

A scan of the original painting of this image appears in Drawing From History the Forgotten Art of Fortunino Matania.
