Gott Strafe England, George Bellows lithograph, 1918

A crowded black-and-white lithograph of soldiers in helmets gathered on a wooden platform beneath two figures with arms bound overhead, hanging from crosses or posts against a dark sky. At center, a man lies stretched out while others lean in around him, with a hillside and light breaking through clouds behind.
