Description
English: Nash was probably influenced in this work by CRW Nevinson's handling of a similar subject matter in his war work, 'Column on the March' (c.1914). There are also similarities with Nash in Nevinson's empty war-desecrated landscapes like 'A Flooded Trench on the Yser' (1916). Nash certainly admired Nevinson, and recorded in a letter to Edward Marsh on 7 July 1917 that they had just met. Image: A view along a straight road lined with tall trees. The trees stand uniformly glowing in a ghostly light, looming over a column of British soldiers marching down the road. The rain drives across the composition from the left, and the soldiers huddle beneath cloaks whilst marching.

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.
