Mathurin Méheut (1882–1958) The Heroes' Rest Color lithograph on large vellum Signed on the plate Printed at the Mourlot workshops 21 x 29.5 cm (sheet) 19.5 x 25.5 cm (image) Excellent condition Mathurin Méheut, painter of the Great War. In 1914, when war broke out, Mathurin Méheut joined the front lines as a soldier in the 136th Infantry Regiment. He took part in the fighting near Arras on the Western Front, where the war of movement quickly gave way to trench warfare—a conflict synonymous with tedium and attrition. He found himself plunged into the horrors of the front for five long years. He produced numerous drawings, capturing the reality of the conflict on the spot. Through his works, Méheut offers a unique window into World War I, combining the precision of a soldier’s testimony with the sensitivity of an artist. Shipping required; up to 5 lithographs in your package for €17.40 (including tax) in Metropolitan France, and €29.64 (including tax) for Europe
