It doesn't say what gas killed these poor bastards in the notes; but going by the fact that they're covered in blisters, I think it's safe to say that it was mustard gas.

The longer you look at this image, the more haunting it gets.

I think it's the eyes, those eyes full of fear, pain and confusion just burning straight through you.

Zdzisław Beksiński: No Official Title: Mausoleum of the Giants

<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zdzis%C5%82aw_Beksi%C5%84ski">Zdzisław Beksiński</a> was a famous Polish artist who specialised in creating dark fantasy paintings, sculptures and staged photographs.

Beksiński was a prolific artist who left a lot of his work untitled, meaning that sometimes his pieces get confused for others and vice versa.

Although his art was often of a highly disturbing nature, Beksiński himself said that there was no deeper meaning in his art and that it was simply what he liked creating.

When I was in school, many years ago now, it was a compulsory part of the curriculum for pupils to study WW1 poetry and the work of Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon has always stuck with me.

Since I've found some of their poems in a suitable format, I thought I'd share them here as I don't know how well known they are outside of the UK and I thought that you guys might find it interesting.

It only occurs to me as I'm about to hit the upload button that I've accidently made a Dark Souls reference.

I'm just going to pretend that I did that on purpose.
