Summary edit

Description
English: In the introduction to the catalogue of Nash's exhibition 'Void of War' at the Leicester Galleries in May 1918, Arnold

Bennett captured the essence of this work and others from the same period: 'He has found the essentials of it, that is to say, disfigurement, danger, desolation, ruin, chaos- the little figures of men creeping devotedly and tragically over the waste.
 image: a view across a devastated Western Front landscape towards Lake Zillebeke in Belgium. The scene is lit by moonlight that spreads in a white pattern across the sky. The path down to the lake is surrounded by the shattered trunks of trees. A working party of four British soldiers moves along a duckboard in the foreground to the left of the composition, the men carrying sandbags and a

spade.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
