WW1 Art Site

I ran into this site over the weekend when I started Niall Ferguson's The Pity of War.

There is some really interesting pieces. I'm not an art expert so you can figure out the styles yourself. I especially liked the piece on Verdun and the pieces on the Battlefield.

Some of the art is fairly creepy.

Oooh! Great stuff. Thanks for tracking it down & sharing it. Good luck on the Pity of War. I found it to be a real slog, but very thought provoking.

Oh fantastic. Just what I needed to hear. Well, you thought "The Age of Arthur" was difficult, which it was, but I got through it.

I read Ketchum's "The Decisive Day" in about 4 days of reading before bed and found it to be a great read. I'm surprised that there is so little documentation of Bunker Hill. But it was interesting how well the rabble did.
