Gassed is a very large oil painting completed in March 1919 by John Singer Sargent (1856-1925). It depicts the aftermath of a mustard gas attack during the First World War, with a line of wounded soldiers walking towards a dressing station. Sargent was commissioned by the British War Memorials Committee to document the war and visited the western front in July 1918.-

I took these photos whilst on an Xmas market trip to Valkensburg a few years ago - these date back to WW2 when Allied soldiers came into town and adorn the walls of the caves under the Castle.
