"Evening, After a Push" image: The original line, which the advancing army leaves behind in its forward movement, remains desolate and encumbered with the debris of battle. A dead German soldier lies at the foot of a smashed tree trunk while British soldiers holding rifles stride past across ground that has been taken in the `push'. The figures are silhouetted against the evening sky, while the beam of a searchlight above their heads adds to the sense of dynamic, purposeful movement. Barrage balloons and clouds hover in the sky, giving a contrasting feeling of beauty and stillness.
