C. R. W. Nevinson made his name and fame as the first British artist to record the full horrors of the First World War. ‘Survivors at Arras’ was painted while he was stationed at St Nicholas, on the outskirts of Arras, France.

The work depicts a row of quintessentially French town buildings. The emptiness of a previously bustling street adds to the ominous atmosphere.

Critics had once praised Nevinson as a Futurist who could paint noise but, here, we literally feel the silence, after the bombs and people have gone.
