John Singer Sargent, ‘Gassed’ and ‘Six Studies for Gassed’ (1918)

robertwire

In Gassed there is little suffering. Or rather, what suffering there is is outweighed by the painting’s compassion. In spite of the vomiting figure the scene has almost nothing in common with Owen’s vision of the gas victim whose blood comes ‘gargling from the froth-corrupted lungs’. What Sargent has depicted, instead, is the solace of the blind: the comfort of putting your trust in someone, of being safely led.

fucking hate talking about SWANA politics with Americans because they treat deaths as statistics

"well the iraq war only had one million deaths, we've actually become less violent since the Vietnam war--" Do you fucking hear yourself? How can you brush off the lives of one million people so easily? How can you calculate the number of deaths per day in current conflicts without feeling sick to your stomach??

this is what happens when people are reduced to numbers on a screen

I am once again bringing up that although I reblog a lot of “military aesthetic” things, I think war is terrible, evil, unnecessary and incredibly destructive to people and the planet
