About the piece
Painted in 1918 by Maurice Galbraith Cullen, this evocative oil painting captures the stillness of dawn over the Ouse Trench. The vast sky, rendered in cool teals and soft lavenders, dominates the composition, contrasting with the dark, heavy earth where soldiers await the day, creating a scene of profound atmospheric depth.
