An encyclopedic survey of artists' responses - both 'official' and personal - to 'the horrors of war'. This work reveals the diversity of artists' portrayals of this most devastating aspect of the human condition - from the 'heroic' paintings of Benjamin West and John Singer Sargent to brutal and iconic works by artists from Goya to Picasso.
