- Info The evocative painting Gassed by American painter John Singer Sargent tells a horrific story in a single image; the story of wounded soldiers in World War 1, wounded by the terrible new weapon of poison gas. By not going down to a personal level, depicting a single injured soldier, the image instead focuses on the feeling of comradeship between men who shared the terrible fate.

- Support - I don't usually vote on FPC nominations of paintings I haven't seen by artists whose style I'm not super-familiar with (of course I've seen work by Sargent, but I'm hardly an expert). But I generally trust Google Art Project, this looks like a great photo to me, and it's certainly a very affecting painting of a very historically significant event. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:50, 26 February 2018 (UTC)
