Came across another Paul Nash painting of "Megaliths in the landscape", it had Avebury stones, Silbury and a hillfort, with a large sun. In the foreground he had painted a small shrub with a snakelike stick centred on the sun - its in the Albright Museum USA....
Not sure what the symbolic repesentation means, know he was a war artist and his starkness partly represents the terrible things he saw but its an intriguing painting - my illustration is black and white, the original was painted in soft shades of yellow, an optimistic colour..
