Artist's commentary
In September 1944, after the failure of Operation Market Garden, the Allied forces hastened to establish a supply base in Belgium, and in October, they crossed the border and advanced into Aachen in Germany.
However, as they approached the Siegfried Line, the front lines became stalemated, and the American forces, forced to commit troops piecemeal, decided to gather their depleted units in the Ardennes Forest for reorganization.
This year, too, the Tiger of La Glaise wanders through the forest, searching for a bridge to cross, dreaming of entering Antwerp.
