A portrait of an Austrialian and New Zealand Army Corps medic escorting a wounded soldier riding a donkey along a cliff path back to base at Gallipoli. Although it purports to show John "Murphy" Simpson Kirkpatrick, it is actually based on a photograph of another medic, Richard Henderson, who took over the donkey after Simpson was killed. The full title is "To the memory of our hero comrade 'Murphy' (Simpson) killed May 1915. Heroes of the Red Cross. Private Simpson, D.C.M., & his donkey at Anzac". (1918)
