This painting was inspired by the re-release of David Lean's classic film, 'Lawrence of Arabia.' This arrival of armored vehicles and a Bristol F.2b heralded a new era of mechanized warfare in the Mideast. Sadly, although the technology has evolved with the times, the sight of military hardware on the sands of the desert has become commonplace as the modern equivalents of these weapons still haunt the region where Lawrence and Allenby once fought. (Painting by James Dietz.)
