    About Brooks: "Ernest Brooks (23 February 1878 — after 1936) was a British photographer, best known for his war photography from the First World War. He was the first official photographer to be appointed by the British military, and produced several thousand images between 1915 and 1918, more than a tenth of all British official photographs taken during the war." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ernest_Brooks_(photographer)
  • Karen (LOC P&P) said:
    Art Siegel: Thanks for making the connection with the photo on the Imperial War Museums website. We'll add some of the information to our catalog record when we update.
