Painting
The Eighth of May (1915) by Fred
Roe
This painting depicts
Cpt. Harold Thorne Edwards firing his revolver at advancing German
troops. Cpt. Edwards was offered the chance of surrendering to the
Germans but replied with the words "Surrender be damned"
Unforunatly the
painting is behind glass and because of reflections is difficult to
photograph and so have been taken and cute angles to minimise the
reflections.
