Description |
English: British artist Sir George Clausen (1852-1944) was commissioned in 1918 by the Canadian War Memorials Fund to paint a large canvas focusing on the subject of agriculture behind the lines in France. Clausen was a well-known British landscape, figure and portrait painter. However, his journey to France during the winter of 1918-1919 had a great impact on him and, instead of agriculture, the resulting painting shows the artist's impression of the population returning to search for their ruined homes after the Armistice |
