The Aftermath of War - Villers-Bretonneux, Somme, Northern France
EDITORS COMMENTS
(circa 1919) by Arthur Ernest Streeton This evocative landscape oil painting by renowned Australian artist Arthur Ernest Streeton captures the haunting beauty and devastation of Villers-Bretonneux in northern France following the First World War. The once tranquil and picturesque village, located in the Somme region, was the site of intense fighting between Allied and German forces during the war. Streeton's masterful use of color and light in this painting brings to life the desolate landscape, with its barren trees, shattered buildings, and discarded remnants of war. The peaceful river that once flowed through the village is now a muddy, stagnant pool, reflecting the somber mood of the scene. The title of the painting, "The Aftermath of War - Villers-Bretonneux," poignantly conveys the sense of loss and destruction that pervades the image. The painting serves as a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the enduring power of art to capture and preserve the essence of history. This painting is part of the Mary Evans Prints Online collection, known as the March of the Women Collection. The collection, which includes over 10,000 images, was assembled by the suffragette and suffragist campaigner, Ethel Smyth, and her partner, Emily Davison. The collection reflects the social, political, and cultural events of the late 19th and early 20th centuries and is an invaluable resource for scholars, historians, and art lovers alike. Arthur Ernest Streeton (1867-1943) was an influential Australian painter, known for his landscapes and impressionist works. He studied in Paris and was greatly influenced by the French Impressionist movement. This painting, created in the aftermath of the First World War, reflects the profound impact of the war on the artist and the world around him.
