Description
English: This painting represents the Ypres salient battlefield under snow. In the foreground, the extensive destruction of the area is evoked in a swathe of broken walls, stricken trees, and huge shell-holes. The background is a snow-covered wasteland that extends to the far ridge, possibly Passchendaele Ridge. The picture was composed from several studies and does not represent an exact spot. Instead, it provides a general impression of the area in winter after the tide of war had passed. In November 1919, Major Cameron wrote that he had "decided to call the picture "The Battlefields of Ypres—After."
