About the piece
Painted in 1918 by Alfred Bastien, this evocative oil on canvas captures the chaotic energy of the Battle of Arras. The work masterfully balances the organic movement of horses with the heavy presence of early tanks, all set against a swirling, atmospheric sky that emphasizes the drama and scale of the First World War.
