  1. Great Post! What a powerful visual representation of this devastating war. The image with the house and the fallen people and horses scattered about the yard really captures the 'home' as battlefield horror of this war. In a time when so many countries continue to be ravaged by war, we are so fortunate in this country that we have gained and retained peace.
