The Battle of the Somme was a battle of the First World War fought by the armies of the British and French empires against the German Empire. It took place between 1st July and 18th November 1916 on both sides of the River Somme in France. The battle was one of the largest of World War I, in which more than 1,000,000 men were wounded or killed, making it one of the bloodiest battles in human history.

This piece is a true LARGE-SIZED PAINTING. For a large-scale, aesthetic and colourful impression on your wall AND as my authentic and personal artwork with an artistic subsurface message.
I use exclusively oil and acrylic colours, canvas and wooden frames in a professional museum quality. The painting wears my signature on the front and is signed, entitled and dated on the backside. Deliberately the sides (about 2 cm wide) are not part of the painting and show the “naked” white canvas with few paint splatters (as typical for professional original paintings). The painting is ready to hang (on the backside: high-quality iron plates with metal inserts and nylon rope for gallery use), unframed and doesn’t need a frame or any additional surface treatment. The piece will be safely shipped in a custom wooden crate. It will be accompanied by a certificate of authenticity and a cover letter and my poem (written for this painting) as an additional part of the artwork.
Please note: In context pictures are not necessarily to scale and are for illustrative purposes only. If you have any questions about this painting or any other piece, feel free to contact me and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.
Thanks so much for taking an interest in my work.
Warm wishes,
Christian

SHIPPING RATES & DUTY FEES: Dear collector, we both are interested in a professional, safe and prompt but cost-saving transport. Of course it isn’t my intention to bring into account more than the real expenses for shipping from my studio to your home. But it isn’t possible to predefine the concrete and exact shipping rates DDP (Delivery Duty Paid) for every country and destination outside the EU, especially not the duty fees. So please note: I am really sorry but the possible duty fees will be the responsibility of the buyer and are not included in my shipping rates at the moment. BUT: Be carefree, you will have all the support that you need. In case of a possible purchase please get in touch with me and let us find together the best, most comfortable and low-priced solution for shipping and customs handling on good terms.
