Houses of Ypres
Painted in 1917 by A.Y. Jackson (1882–1974) "What to paint was a problem for the war artist. . . . The old heroics, the death and glory stuff, were gone for ever; The impressionist technique I had adopted in painting was now ineffective, for visual impressions were not enough." — A. Y. Jackson, Canadian First World War artist |
