Attributed to Albert Herbert, no coa, private collection, medium: oil measurements: 36"WX36"H no frame, mint condition Biography: Albert Herbert was a British abstract and religious artist, painter and etcher. He was called up in 1943, became an infantryman and took part in the Normandy landings in 1944 where he witnessed his comrades being picked off by German snipers in the Normandy bocage. His regiment had lost three-quarters of its men to death and injury by 1945 when it crossed the Rhine.
