Helen Madeline McKie (1889-2004) was educated at Tiffin Girls School, Kingston on Thames, and Lambeth School of Art, where she studied composition and painting under Philip Connard. She then became an illustrator and permanent member of staff to `Bystander` Magazine from 1915 to 1929. She was also a contributing artist to The Graphic, Sphere, Autocar and Queen publications. McKie became well known for her drawings of military figures during World War One and corresponded with soldiers in active service across the world. In 1931, she paid a visit to the Brown House, Munich, when on the strength of a letter of introduction to Hitler, she was allowed to sketch Nazi officials. During World War II, she was commissioned by Lord Lloyd to make sketches of Navy personnel and warships. In 1943, she painted `The Upper War Room` at Admiralty, Whitehall for presentation to Sir Winston Churchill, who was in the picture. She produced commissioned work for the Southern Railway, mural designs for amongst others, the Ritz Hotel in London, several Butlins holiday camps, Ford motorcars, the French government Tourist Office and Selfridges. The Victoria and Albert Museum holds an archive of her papers, drawings, photographs, and ephemera, the gift of John Fraser, her nephew. Among the papers is an illustrated article from The Graphic, concerning McKie`s sketches of Nazi officials (1931) and it seems likely that the two signed drawings here present with Graphic stamps to verso were used for that article. Nonetheless, this remains an extraordinary and unique artistic record of Hitler`s Nazi Party Headquarters by a British woman artist. Provenance: Mark Dineley, well-known arms and armour collector and bibliophile, by descent. (1)
