Exhibition Label: "Empire of Things," Jun-2014, Steve Goddard Devambez volunteered for duty with a camouflage unit and was wounded in the War. He was a painter as well as a talented printmaker and produced an important portfolio of twelve etchings showing scenes of the War from its urban impact to the front lines. One of these etchings is a variant of this otherworldly landscape in which soldiers take cover in flooded craters.
