War and Peace – British art in the shadow of conflict

To mark Armistice Day, War and Peace explores the profound impact of two world wars on British art and society, from the devastation of the First World War through the uneasy peace of the interwar years to the challenges of the Second World War.

From the battlefields of France to the factories, fields and homes of Britain, these works reveal not only the realities of war but also the resilience of everyday life, the changing roles of women and the enduring human longing for peace.
