Description Painting depicting a Waffen SS NCO leading a local counterattack during the final, and ultimately doomed, German offensive of the war in the Ardennes. He is armed with the revolutionary MP44 assault rifle, the forerunner of modern infantry rifles, which arrived too late to influence the fate of the German land forces.
P Coote Member Since November 2008 Artist Statement The German soldier in World War 2
The artist has a long-standing historical interest in the German armed forces that fought on land during the Second World War. Thus, the artist specialises in depicting individual soldiers or the battles that they fought in. The works are original and inspired by the wealth of photographs from the conflict and attempt to portray the experience of conflict as captured on the faces of the participants.
