    There is a lot of quite interesting #art on the servers of the #militaryhistory museums. Not just by the officially appointed #warartists, but also by (more or less, I am no judge of this) talented amateurs. One painting that has always fascinated me is this by Brigadier Davy, painted in 1973, reliving his desert experience. Titled "Rhodesians on Road Watch" it shows members of the Rhodesian patrol of the #LRDG artuk.org/discover/artists/dav
