Images of War 

London

The Beaumont Press

1919

Images of War was illustrated with woodcuts by Paul Nash, who had been an official war artist during WWI. Nash also designed the cover paper, which depicts an artillery barrage and is signed in the lower right-hand corner. Like many of the press’s publications, Images of War was issued in multiple formats. This copy, in the least limited format (120 copies), bears the bookplate of Simon Nowell-Smith (1909-1996), librarian at the London Library (1950-1956).
