REF-01B – Mother and 2 Daughters | John Jenkins Designs
War on the frontier affected entire families, not only the soldiers who fought it.
REF-01B – Mother and 2 Daughters presents a civilian family group that brings a much more personal dimension to a historical display.
Women and children could be displaced when settlements were threatened, forced to leave homes with only those possessions they could carry or transport.
This three-figure family works especially well with pack horses, other refugees and militia, creating the impression of civilians travelling away from danger or attempting to reach the safety of a fortified settlement.
Figures such as these are valuable because they remind us that military campaigns took place within populated landscapes and could have profound consequences for ordinary people.
Available through The Military Workshop – a poignant John Jenkins Designs civilian set adding humanity and narrative to a frontier collection.
Brand: John Jenkins
