[Gallipoli landscape] Accession Number: ART91305

The landscape is textured and appears scarred and ravaged through the use of Nolan's rubbing technique. Nolan had visited museums in Athens and seen many Ancient Greek sculptures and artifacts. The rubbing seems to refer to the style of hieroglyphic bas-relief sculpture.
