Description: | scene set among the ruins of a church. A group of peasants stand around a seated woman who has an expression of frozen horror on her face, her hands clasped tightly in her lap. Two of the peasants attempt to communicate with her, while another pair discuss her plight. Three others stand in an attitude of sorrow. Two British soldiers, one resting on the ground, the other leaning on his rifle, stand as silent witnesses to the scene. All around them are the devastated remains of Douai. | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Orpen, William (Sir) (RA) | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=6427... | Go to resource |
