WARTIME SKETCHES

Tadeusz served with the Polish Army during the Second World War in North African and Italy. Army life held special dangers for an artist. As part of a Forward Patrol he was expected to approach German lines and make detailed drawings of terrain and enemy positions. The drawings shown here were made during Rest Time in Camp and on Leave.
