The paths of glory lead but to the grave

The boast of heraldry, the pomp of pow’r,

And all that beauty, all that wealth e’er gave,

Awaits alike th’ inevitable hour.

The paths of glory lead but to the grave.

I really like the depiction of barbed wire in this painting and also love the realistic depiction of the horror of war.

  1. Is there nothing sadder and mote depressing than seeing young men going and getting themselves killed in wars where leaders couldn’t give a shit about them!
