The most exciting and important original ‘Arnhem’ picture for many years.
This remarkable painting depicts the final days of the defence of the Oosterbeek Perimeter by the remnants of The 10th Battalion, The Parachute Regiment in September 1944. It is a stunning representation of the chaos of conflict, it feels almost as though you are there inside the ruins with these beleaguered men.
The original, created by artist, Derek Chambers FRSA, has been kindly donated to Friends of the Tenth.
