Illustrations inspired by the film Wooden Crosses (1932) by Raymond Bernard. Also in the mail today I got a copy of Art Against War by Bruckner, Chwast and Heller. A truly amazing book representing many of my favorite artists: George Grosz, Jacques Callot, Francisco Goya, William Blake, Reginald Marsh, and of coarse Otto Dix.
