Antique Shop

Antique Shop

I found the Imperial War Museum really useful, so I wanted to find another place to visit  for research where I could also see some World War one objects in the flesh. I found an Antique shop in Rochester High Street where I was able to collect some further images, useful to my project.

I particularly like the last image, even though it was used as decoration, around the time of the war people would have been very patriotic and it made me want to use the Union Jack in my work. Even though my project focuses on Belgium I think it would be a good idea to bring in the British flag to show the interaction between different nationalities during the war.
