ArtistIn the middle of the ruins of a World War I battlefield a 60-year old man dressed in military armor who looks like Charles Dance is playing chess at a small table with a 35 year-old man wearing circular eyeglasses and an olive drab military coat who looks like John Lennon. The surrounding landscape is muddy with craters, tangled barb wire and jagged tree stumps. The sky above is overcast and strewn with dark, brooding clouds. Oil painting in the style of "Gray and Gold" by John Rogers Cox.
Archrivals playing chess in No Man's Land. Antitheses at an impasse, grappling amidst the wreckage of their feud. Professor and war lord? God and the Devil? Who knows? The title from that of Schopenhauer's greatest work.
