in the english lines

Well-known member
today I received something I bought some weeks ago,

It is a book with 24 prints of scetches (" croquis") made by a French war artist during the great war, " in the English lines",
printed and disributed by the French War office during the war.

the book is printed and signed in a limited edition of 300 numbered books.

(mine is number 147).

I always like art made by war artists, and this one really made beautiful sketches (in my humble opinion).

I like it very much, I will attach some examples of the plates in the book.

Done by the hand of a true artist!! in the best way ever, as if we are looking true the artist's eyes and see what he had seen ...
 
What an expressive work……
I can find more and more pleasure in the British steel helmet among others!
